When the Devil Smiles the Angels Frown: My Life and Times in Rock ‘n’ Roll

How a childhood punishment created an impossible dream in the magical world of rock ‘n’ roll. They were modern-day pirates, banding together with creative revolutionaries who became the voice of a generation. They are the Knights of Rock, regular guys who had the honor and privilege of working with some of the greatest rock stars during an amazing time in history: the Classic Rock era. Leo Rossi is one of those Knights. A young Italian Catholic boy from the blue-collar Los Angeles port town of San Pedro, he tripped into an impossible dream and helped mega stars such as Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks, The Beach Boys, Bette Midler, Diana Ross, Chaka Khan, Billy Idol, and many more.

With a devil and an angel on his shoulders, Leo forged life-long skills while he learned the value of sacrifice, hard work, dedication, loyalty, and passion.

Leo’s life story proves that the wildest of dreams do come true.
