'Before Cliff Richard and the Shadows, there was nothing worth listening to in British music.' - John Lennon.

Cliff Richard tells his story, in his own words, in his highly anticipated new autobiography.

Achieving a hit in every decade since the 1950s, Cliff Richard stands alone in pop history. Coming of age in 1950s London, he began his music career at Soho's legendary 2i's Cafe, and now he's approaching his 80th birthday with record sales of over 250m and counting.

Cliff Richard was a pioneer, forging the way for British rock 'n' roll with his unique sound. The original British teen idol, his incredible story takes us into the studio of TV's first pop show Oh Boy!, through 40 years of Top of the Pops, and playing live up and down the country and across the world, with a constant backdrop of screaming fans.

Cliff looks back on his humble upbringing, and how he went on to fulfil his wildest dreams by becoming a pop star and even a film star. He talks about finding Christianity, reflects on the ups and downs of life in the public eye, and reveals how the false allegations against him changed his life forever.

He's seen era-defining pop stars come and go, and he's still making new music, with a new project to be released this year. As a teenage Elvis-fan in Cheshunt, this may have seem a distant dream. Here's his story of how he made it all happen.

Cliff lives a life of faith and music! I couldn’t put this book down! Cliff explains his journey, and I respect him more than any other entertainer! Worth buying! My favorite book!

Not the story I was expecting

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 13, 2022

Maybe Cliff Richard has had a boring life outside of his music career. I feel this book was about his recording career and various managers. Maybe he needed a better ghost writer to make it interesting.

Excellent read for any fans of Cliff or the history of Pop music.

Great read. The story of the pop legend that is Cliff Richard direct from the man himself. It details the highs and lows of a fantastic career in music and showbiz that began over 50 years ago.

I love Cliff Richard and enjoyed both of his books very much. He doesn’t over write and gets to the point. Tells it like it is. His music is great too.

Amazing history of one of the greatest pop stars, a history covering sixty years. What other artist alive today can say this. Also good to hear it in his own words. Bought the book and had it on my kindle.

Excellent Book. A moving honest autobiography

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 29, 2020

Verified Purchase

It’s awesome and very informative about Sir Cliff and his amazing journey to where he is now. And also very moving and I found the chapter on the unnecessary horrific experience Cliff went through very upsetting, for a decent man who has brought us nothing but happiness, through the years.

It’s time the media celebrated Sir Cliff and all that his done through his amazing career

My first 45 single was by Cliff Richard , living doll in1959.
On and off I've been a fan ever since. Bought many of his records over the last 60 years!
I've just finished reading his autobiography.
It's a strangely unsatisfying read.
Lots of facts and figures, lots about his shows, films music, as one would expect,...but, unlike a lot of rock/pop life stories, he is somehow holding back all the time.
He guards his image relentlessly, I don't know what he likes in his women, or his favourite food, or anything.
I'm sure he isn't as vacuous and shallow as this book makes him seem, but compared with recent autobiographies by Sting ,Roger
Daltrey and Keith Richards it's very unedifying.
Sorry sir Cliff!

A book to treasure

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on November 7, 2020

I’ve been a fan of Cliff’s for over 40 years and have all his CDs, DVDs and most of his books. I’ve also had the absolute pleasure of seeing him in concert close on 30 times. Anyone who’s been a fan that long already knows his life story but nevertheless I still wanted this book. It’s Cliff’s story in his own words and it’s full in interesting anecdotes and also extremely moving in parts. I also bought the audiobook from Audible and it’s lovely that Cliff has narrated the whole thing, it’s over 10 hours long and comes across much better than the book as you feel he’s only talking to you, which he is of course. His humour shines though and sadly also his despair during the horrific time of his life that we know all too well about, unfortunately. What’s great though is his ongoing enthusiasm for the future, he talks in detail of his tour next year that had to be postponed and he sounds like a kid at Christmas, so excited about everything to come and reiterated the fact that he’s not even thinking of retirement any time soon. He’s just got such a zest for life, which I love! You can’t say that about many 80 year olds! Just amazing! ❤️ Any fan will love this book and it’s one to treasure.
