Not really a music book, but Rosie does talk about working with Bobby Brown, Heavy D & The Boyz, choreographing music videos, Soul Train & Don Cornelius, and the Fly Girls from In Living Color.

For those who are into gospel music, this is a good new book. It mentions several of the acts back when the Staples started like the Soul Stirrers & Rev. C.L. Franklin and features comments by many who worked with the family and the members themselves.
