Reviews
"Grady Gaines' story--from his first nightclub job in Fifth Ward's Lyons Avenue to national tours with Little Richard--is the story of blues and R&B in the middle of the twentieth century, a sound that shaped popular music worldwide.  I've Been Out There  also tells how powerful music broke down barriers that had once divided Houston, and our nation, by race."--Bill White, Former Mayor of Houston, Texas  , "Relatively little is written about backing bands, adding to the importance of I've Been Out There , which provides an unusual perspective not typically seen in accounts that come from the leading acts themselves. A peppering of vintage black and white photos throughout contributes to a winner!"-- Midwest Book Review, "Grady Gaines' story--from his first nightclub job in Fifth Ward's Lyons Avenue to national tours with Little Richard--is the story of blues and R&B in the middle of the twentieth century, a sound that shaped popular music worldwide. I've Been Out There also tells how powerful music broke down barriers that had once divided Houston, and our nation, by race."--Bill White, Former Mayor of Houston, Texas, "Grady Gaines was more than a footnote to history; he was an actual participant and observer." -- Southwestern Historical Quarterly, "As a piece of history, this ranks with the best glimpses into the birth of rock 'n' roll, and Gaines even goes so far as to detail the birth of soul as well as how blues grew into R&B."-- Texas Music
