You came over here with wild tales from the East
About the floods that are rushing 'round your door
About your old lady who up and walked away from your feast,
So you flew your bike over Highway 1
You were lucky to land on your feet
And you started crying 'cause you bent the key,
But it was your lady that landed underneath.
And it is alright
Take it as it comes
You will find a way
To get there.
So tell me your company's being reviewed,
By the people that sit on the stand,
And you tell me your factory's been renewed,
With computers instead of hands.
So you filmed Old faithful in super-8
And you monitored all of her calls
Cause you caught the milkman with double-cream
He was delivering down your halls.
But its all right
Take it as it comes
You will find a way
To get there.
From Graham Nash--the legendary musician and founding member of iconic bands Crosby, Stills & Nash and The Hollies--comes a candid and riveting autobiography that belongs on the reading list of every classic rock fan.
Graham Nash's songs defined a generation and helped shape the history of rock and roll-- he’s written over 200 songs, including such classic hits as "Carrie Anne," “On A Carousel,” "Simple Man," "Our House," “Marrakesh Express,” and "Teach Your Children." From the opening salvos of the British Rock Revolution to the last shudders of Woodstock, he has rocked and rolled wherever music mattered. Now Graham is ready to tell his story: his youth in post-war England, his early days in the British Invasion group The Hollies; becoming the lover and muse of Joni Mitchell during the halcyon years, when both produced their most introspective and important work; meeting Stephen Stills and David Crosby and reaching superstardom with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young; and his enduring career as a solo musician and political activist. From London to Laurel Canyon and beyond, Wild Tales is a revealing look back at an extraordinary life--with all the highs and the lows; the love, the sex, and the jealousy; the politics; the drugs; and the insanity of a magical era of music.
GRAHAM NASH is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee--once with CSN and once with The Hollies. He was also inducted into the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame twice--both as a solo artist and with CSN. And, he is a Grammy award winner. In 2010, Nash was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) by Queen Elizabeth for his contributions as a musician and philanthropist. His company Nash Editions’ original IRIS 3047 digital printer lives in the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution in recognition revolutionary accomplishments in the fine arts digital printing world. An activist for social and environmental justice, he is also an artist, acclaimed photographer and photography collector. He lives in Hawaii with his wife, Susan.

Acteur dans plus de 30 longs-métrages et une douzaine de téléfilms, Artus de Penguern était également réalisateur, notamment de La Clinique de l'amour, sorti en 2012, dans lequel il interprétait un chirurgien peu scrupuleux.
Il tenait aussi chaque semaine une chronique en forme de coup de gueule, intitulée "Ça suffit" dans l'émission "Comme on nous parle" de Pascale Clark sur France Inter. Ses textes grinçants et provocateurs masquaient souvent l'indignation sincère de cet aristocrate d'origine bretonne, au sourire franc et à l'humour caustique.
Ancien élève du cours Simon, il avait commencé à jouer dans les années 80, interprétant toutes sortes de rôles dans des films aussi divers qu'un Maupassantde Michel Drach (1980), Danton de Wajda en 1983, Le Sang des autres de Chabrol (1983) ou Police de Maurice Pialat (1985). Plus récemment, dans Amélie Poulain, il jouait Hipolito, écrivain blasé au regard triste.
Cet amateur de poker à l'insatiable curiosité confiait préférer le métier de scénariste à celui d'acteur. Il avait réalisé cinq courts-métrages avant de passerau long, avec Grégoire Moulin contre l'humanité (2000), dans lequel il joue le rôletitre d'un orphelin malchanceux, né un vendredi 13 qui mène une morne existence provinciale avant de tenter sa chance, sans succès aucun, à la capitale.
