This book is a masterpiece!!
Just loved this book!
If any musician deserves to have a celebration of his work none can be more deserving than Roy Harper.
Wonderful book written by a man who clearly has a deep love and understanding of Roy’s work and the passion really comes through here.
I have to declare that this is one heck of a read!
Incredible amount of interesting information and beautifully written too.
Opher Goodwin offers many enlightening thoughts and personal recollections as he takes you on a fabulous musical journey from Sophisticated Beggar to the magnificent Man And Myth.
This was an epic undertaking…And it doesn’t fall short…I absolutely loved it!
Brilliantly written and flows nicely!
Extremely well written in a nice easy flowing casual style.
The writing flows along and draws you in. I read it in one sitting and then went back to read it again.
His writing and humour lifts it above the usual book.
The writing is never ‘dry’ – there is entertainment alongside education.
The writing is energetic, insightful and, in many places, inspired.
As soon as I started reading “on track…..Roy Harper” I was hooked.
Makes me want to play every song (again).
Excellent and enjoyable – thorough, detailed, super anecdotes and “eye witness”, and an easy and fun read.
The book gives new insights into familiar tunes and lyrics, brings knowledge about recently heard gems and adds a greater depth to our collective knowledge about one of the most loved singer/songwriters of his generation.
A wonderfully insightful and personal journey through Roy’s songs.
I have had a most enjoyable week reading Opher Goodwins’ book about Roy Harper’s songs while relistening to my own albums.
This book deserves to sit by your side, in any reading of this masterful lyricist, singer, songwriter, and poet.
Opher has a longstanding friendship with Roy and this shines through in this very interesting book.
No-one but Opher could have released a book on Roy Harper’s songs quite like this one, I say….. Full marks!
Highly recommended!
Over 50 years of special memories.
Essential Reading for the Roy Harper Fan.
On the first day it’s sparked a ten hour listening session of some early Harper albums and given me amazing new insight into songs.
Find out what you have been missing.
Simply the best way to discover new songs and add deeper meaning!
Fantastic insight into Roy’s work!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TROUBLE TO LEAVE A REVIEW!
