Written by Gina Waggott, this biography tells the remarkable story of a man who defied all odds to become a global pop sensation in the 1990s.
Scatman John’s journey was far more than a novelty hit. A jazz musician who battled addiction and nearly let his stutter destroy his life, John Larkin turned his greatest challenge into his signature sound. At 52, he became the world’s unlikeliest popstar, best known for the global megahits ‘Scatman (Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Bop)’ and ‘Scatman’s World’.
But Scatman John’s impact extended beyond music. His story of transformation speaks to anyone who has ever felt like an outsider. This authorized biography delves deep into John’s incredible journey, revealing the man behind the music in a way that’s never been done before.
