Enchanted (Things We Lost in the Night #2)

Larry J. Dunlap
4.9/5 (33486 ratings)
Description:ENCHANTED CONCLUDES Things We Lost in the Night, a fast-moving, romance-filled memoir of a young singer and his friends search for success in the 1960s music business of California and Las Vegas - if you liked memoirs from Carly Simon, Keith Richards, Patti Smith, Tommy James, and "The Wrecking Crew," you'll love Enchanted. "I began with a simple retelling of the four of us from Indiana's rock and roll adventures in the chaotic West Coast of the mid-1960s for friends and family. It turned into a memoir seen and experienced through my eyes, that in the end, revealed itself for what it had always been--A LOVE STORY."In the final three years of Things We Lost in the Night, the band's trajectory continues to rise as their new record release is picked by Billboard Magazine to debut high on the Hot 100. In Hawaii, Larry encounters a life-threatening moment and an indelible romantic fantasy, experiences on this beautiful and exotic island during the Vietnam War that change his life in many ways. The band's homecoming to Indianapolis that follows is far less satisfying than he'd expected and a national tragedy affects the hit record everyone expected. But the band's success as performers continues as they headline in Las Vegas with famous bands like Sly and the Family Stone and discover that Stark Naked and the Car Thieves has become the model for the latest supergroup, Three Dog Night. Though the recording success they'd hoped for hasn't materialized yet, the Flamingo Hotel has booked them to perform in the new SKY ROOM, a dance/showroom designed and built especially for them. Here they perform for the biggest stars in the world, including Tom Jones and Elvis Presley, and play with internationally famous musicians who come to sit in with them. With their success, Larry's feels he's living a romantic fairy tale with his new wife and baby son and been given a second chance to redeem the failure of his first marriage. When the Flamingo's owner completes construction on the new International Hotel, the world's largest resort casino, Elvis Presley is slated to open in the main showroom to begin his legendary climb to superstardom in the city that never sleeps. Stark Naked and the Car Thieves are told they will join him as they open the CROWN ROOM at the top of the new hotel, a venue similar to the Sky Room. After another record release fizzles, the band fears their producer is losing interest in them and are frustrated with their progress as recording artists. In a big surprise, Capitol Records chooses them to record a theme song for a new major movie, and they believe their fortunes may change. When the movie fails to be completed, and another release fails to hit the charts, disappointment in their recording success continues to dog them. Larry believes the band has to compose their own original music and looks for unconventional ways to trigger the band's creativity. Meanwhile, unrest threatens to implode the band. During a scheduling mixup, a crisis arises. His new wife and son are missing. His life and sanity are threatened as he searches for ways to save his family and keep the band together. PRAISE FOR THINGS WE LOST IN THE NIGHT "Dunlap's sense of transcendence is similar to the sensation Keith Richards describes in his memoir, 'Life: ' ...you leave the planet for a while...' Reliving his rock and roll years in his wonderful memoir, Larry Dunlap must have left the planet for a while, too." I loved it and highly recommend it. -- Kiana Davenport, The Spy Lover, Shark Dialogues "Whether or not you remember the swift intoxicating music of that era or the seismic shift of mores that burst from the free-love movement, Larry J. Dunlap captures the beat of that misty time when the country suffered "a growing thirst for individual freedom, a desire to escape from an ever-darkening shadow of war, and a national hangover following the public murder of a young and popular president." -- C.D.
