Once a Rocker Always a Rocker: A Diary THE new music memoir
Welcome to the SHOW!
"The new singer, Cowboy Mach Bell, was a rock'n'roll guy who grew up in the next town over from me (Holliston, Massachusetts) and had a group called Thundertrain. He loved to rave and be in a band..." - Joe Perry
People are talking about "Once a Rocker Always a Rocker: A Diary"
“I just finished an awesome book which I think you’d enjoy, simply if you love rock’n’roll. Now, if you’re an Aerosmith and Joe Perry fan, I know you’re gonna want to read this one.
And if you’re a fan of Boston Rock’n’Roll it’s a no-brainer…
The book is Once a Rocker Always a Rocker: A Diary, written by local legend Mach Bell, singer for the late 70’s Boston workhorse group Thundertrain.
And also, more famously, as frontman to the Joe Perry Project.”
CARTER ALAN - WZLX-FM iHeartRadio Personality, Author and Music Historian
“I’m THRILLED that you’ve put out this book. This is the LOST ERA…and to get it from somebody who was there!”
JULIAN GILL - Host of Look! It’s Rock’N’Roll, Rock historian & Author
“It’s a fascinating, FASCINATING story.”

“(A) book that is phenomenal. I recommend it to every fan.”
