"Thanks to this book, we can learn at last just how Spike Jones made his magic, and what sort of magic man he was... Thank you, Jordan Young."

-- Dr. Demento

"Looks for the real Spike Jones. Not simply another glowing Hollywood biography...

objectively covers the ups and downs of Jones' career."

-- Randy Lewis, The Los Angeles Times

"Young is unsentimental in his assessment of Jones' virtues and flaws in both his private and professional lives... with a seriousness of purpose and a sense of humor befitting its subject, he describes how Jones' clattersome creations worked their way into a nation's consciousness."

-- Drew Wheeler, Billboard

"A definitive, all-inclusive reference source for Jones' life and career, as well as a great source of information about the bands and musicians he performed and recorded with."

-- Pete Levin, The Clams
