“In Crazy Lucky, John’s own story weaves in and out of the lives of some of the entertainment world’s most extraordinary talents. You will find a common theme: His ability to see the person behind the star.” —Priscilla Presley “John's integrity and exceptional passion for his work gives him the ability to bring consensus in the most difficult of situations. I don't know what we'd do without him. He has the most amazing stories about his life and career in music. This book is a must read.” —Tom Petersson, Cheap Trick “Knowing and working with John Mason throughout my career in the music lane, has been both a pleasure and privilege. He is smart, kind, wired and has a no bs attitude toward getting stuff done. I so relate to and admire him. Crazy Lucky speaks to his insights and vision that very few attorneys in the music business around the world could possibly have.” —Spencer Proffer, music and media producer  ""My life can many times be hectic and chaotic and it's comforting to know that when it comes to legal matters I have someone I can trust to always give me sound advice and who is always there for me. That man for me is John Mason."" —Smokey Robinson  “In my fairly long career as a musician and band member of Cheap Trick, and much to my detriment, I’ve never had a personal lawyer. This music business is confusing and sometimes cutthroat. Luckily, I met John. He has a talent to fix things that are seemingly unfixable. The best thing to ever happen to my career.” —Robin W. Zander, Cheap Trick ""The thing about John that Frankie and I noticed, mostly, was his passion and allegiance to his clients.  Something to treasure.” —Frankie Valli and Bob Gaudio, The Four Seasons and Jersey Boys
