A man of lights and shadows, and the embodiment of street credibility, Yaffa has recorded with Bruce Springsteen and Slash, played with the New York Dolls and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, crawled across Helsinki pubs and restaurants with Anthony Bourdain, and performed at Carnegie Hall. This is his story"--Dust jacket.

Autorenporträt
Sami Yaffa is a Finnish musician and an original member of Hanoi Rocks, a major influence still resonating throughout rock and roll and punk music around the world today. In the beginning, though, Sami Yaffa started playing bass at the age of fourteen years old in Espoo, Finland, then went on to tour and record with a long list of other notable bands, including: Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, New York Dolls, Pelle Miljoona Oy, Pelle Almgren In, Jetboy, Johnny Thunders, Smack, Jerusalem Slim, Demolition 23, Mad Juana, Murphy’s Law, Michael Monroe Band, Bruce Springsteen, Slash, and The Hellacopters, to name just a few. In 2012, Sami appeared on the “Finland” episode of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations for a liquored-up tour of the world’s only pub tram, a bloody sauna, and an unexpectedly exciting dinner with a cabbie’s mother in Helsinki; and the Sami Yaffa: Sound Tracker television program ran for three seasons between 2014–2016, traveling with Sami to Serbia, Brazil, Argentina, Spain, Ethiopia, Jamaica, Senegal, India Turkey, Indonesia, and beyond. Sami Yaffa: Sound Tracker won two Golden Venla Awards (Finnish Emmys) for the first and second season, and episodes can be found online via YLE Areena (areena.yle.fi), YouTube (Sami Yaffa—Sound Tracker), and Link TV (linktv.org).
