Pollard has been compared by the New York Times to Mozart, Rossini, and Paul McCartney (in the same sentence) and everyone from P. J. Harvey, Radiohead, R.E.M., the Strokes, and U2 has sung his praises and cited his music as an influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut it all started rather prosaically when Pollard, a fourth-grade teacher in his early thirties, began recording songs with drinking buddies in his basement. In this book, James Greer, an acclaimed music writer and former Spin editor--who also played in the band for two years--provides unparalleled insight and complete access to the workings of Pollard's muse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJames Greer\u003c\/b\u003e, a screenwriter and novelist, has written for \u003ci\u003eSpin\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTennis Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, and Paris Hilton.
