It's a beautiful hardbound edition with nearly 100 black and white and color photos, co-written by Stephen H. Provost and published by Dragon Crown Books.

"While it's not surprising that Lief Sorbye's musical journey began in 1964 with the same Beatles obsession that seized the rest of the world, The Busking Years details the colorful and often rocky road that finally delivered him to the stage. As Tempest followers know, this is one artist who sprinkles folk, rock, Celtic, Nordic and other international flavors into his hard-driving sound for an extraordinary power achieved through familiar and unique musical instruments sitting side-by-side; English lyrics combining with his native Norwegian. With this book, fans will quickly understand the origins of Tempest's unique vibrancy as they follow Sorbye on his vast travels. Join him as he busks for change on street corners, crashes at strangers' (and weirdos') digs, spends days in a jail cell, dabbles in Scientology or finds a sheep's head beneath his front steps. And marvel, no matter what the situation or ordeal, at how it's the music--always the music--that leaves the greatest impression on this trailblazing wizard."

Judy Cuervo,
Creative Director/Time Warner Retail (1983-2008), widely published travel writer
