Here is what the critics are saying. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classic images of bikers from the 70’s and earlier are a hit among today’s discriminating enthusiasts. And it’s not just a case of looking back through rose colored glasses to motorcycling’s past. Rather it is the natural consequence when popular culture celebrates cartoonish exaggerations, and shuns the genuine. Doug Barber’s photos remind us of a time when the bikes, and the people that rode them were the real deal. Thankfully, Doug was there living it; not just as an observer from the outside. This collection of images combined with the words of Sorez the Scribe provides a unique glimpse into our culture’s past. For those that lived, partied and rode during that time it’s a memory book of sorts. For the new generation it represents the path less chosen, inspiration, and a history book of our two-wheeled forefathers. Living the life, it’s good for your soul.” Todd Ingram Editorial Director ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Marriage of Biker Poetry and Photographic Genius: Q-Ball’s master lens and Sorez the Scribe’s road sharpened pen ignites the page with the lure of the steel pony, the rolling thunder, the chink, chink, chink of the gravel, and a brotherhood that rides forever towards the horizon. While there are many photo books that spread bikers and their motorcycles flat out across a coffee table, and certainly Biker Poetry is beginning to stand on its own in the poetry community, Living the Life is the ‘IMAX of Biker Nation.’ Sorez’s poetic cadence draws you into Q-Ball’s lens where you are not just looking at some pictures, you are on the bike, riding with the pack, or just taking a solo run into the wind. From Basket Case to Road to Redemption Q-Ball and Sorez bring the Code of Ethics into ‘True 3D Soul’ with photo-word-graphics. Living the Life is more than a photo-documentary, or a poetry book, and it is deeper than a historical perspective, Living the Life is history in the making - a history that can open the pipes and blast down highways at the speed of light.

You have no idea how this is going to impact many people. Greybeards like us long and love to remember and re live the old days, and the young ones desire to understand and be a part of our time and world that was so great! We knew and still do know where it's at. The real thing is not dead, the real bikers are not dead. We've just been overrun with the media's attempt to make merchandise of us. I am looking forward to your book and receiving your mag. If you really look at your photos you not only see the subject in the picture but you can see the man behind the camera. The one that see's the beauty and heart in the image he catches, has that same beauty and heart in himself first or else he could not see it to capture it for others to see. For the others are there but they do not see. They do not have the heart or beauty in them to look for it. You truly have a gift. And I am not blowing smoke up your ass! I really love and am impressed by your art! And if a scruffy old bum like me can see it others can too.."of course no one has ever called me dumb"...... Later turtle
That book proposal is just bangin bro. I want half a dozen copies for my not so deserving friends. Let me know when they're available.
Gidday mate, just took a squizz at ya book. Bloody ripper. Been on 2 wheels nearly 40 years and some of those pics look like they were from my past. Still riding and won't stop until they push dirt over me. The book will be popular in Oz I can tell you. I will be directing some brothers to check it out. Send me your thoughts and photos, and I’ll post them here. Long May You Ride,
