Too Hard to Handle is what happens when a bunch of loudhearted weirdos in the San Fernando Valley decide the band is the plan—and then actually chase it. Greg Brown tells the inside story of the Pur’p’l Tur’t’lz: living-room jams, backyard generator parties, and flatbed “mobile jams” that somehow turn into real gigs at places like the Palomino and Winston’s O.B. Part memoir, part band history, the book follows Greg Brown, Steve Bryant, Kenny Bellew, Greg Herman, Chris Baustert, Todd Myers, and Ron Russell through Camp Templin chaos, near-misses, and strange opportunities (yes—Rick Rubin and The Turtles drift through the orbit), all the way to the hard-won making of Hatched —a record born from friendship, obsession, and pure DIY momentum. Now includes photo section.
