Mit dem eingängigen Pop-Song Lemon Tree gelang der deutschen Band Fools Garden Mitte der 90er Jahre ein echter Welthit. Für Sänger und Songschreiber Peter Freudenthaler, Jahrgang 1963, öffnete sich mit dem Song die Tür zur internationalen Musikwelt und zu einer Karriere, die er sich nie hätte träumen lassen. In seiner Autobiographie nimmt er uns mit auf diese Reise: Von der behüteten Kindheit und Jugend in Pforzheim und den Anfängen als Schulband bis zur Geburt des Zitronenbaums , vom plötzlichen Erfolg als Popstar und Chartstürmer und dem Leben auf Tournee bis zu aktuellen Songs.

Living in the Woods in a Tree is an intimate glimpse into the turbulent life of Texas music legend Blaze Foley (1949-1989), seen through the eyes of Sybil Rosen, the woman for whom he wrote his most widely known song, "If I Could Only Fly". It captures the exuberance of their fleeting idyll in a tree house in the Georgia woods during the countercultural 1970s. Rosen offers a firsthand witnessing of Foley's transformation from a reticent hippie musician to the enigmatic singer/songwriter who would live and die outside society's rules.

In 1992, the Screaming Trees were expected to become the next big band to come out of the Seattle music scene during the heyday of grunge. Except it never happened. It wasn't because the band didn't have great songs—indeed, the Trees were revered for their ability to write a great song that was both artistically original and commercially viable, which is no easy task. Other Seattle bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden were fans of the Screaming Trees, playing shows with them and collaborating on albums, long before their own bands broke through into the mainstream.
