I’ve been a little quiet over these last few months. Following the success of the Roy Harper: Every Album, Every Song (On Track) Paperback I received a contract to write a book on Captain Beefheart.
I completed the rewrite of the Roy Harper memoir, that I was rewriting, and put it to one side. I find that allowing some time to pass helps with objectivity.
I have spent the past two months working on the Beefheart book. Today I completed the first draft. It is due out next July so I’m ahead of schedule.
As is my way, I am putting that to one side and turning my attention back to the Roy memoir book. I hope to complete a read-through/edit before winter solstice!
I’ll keep you informed.
In the meantime, thank you so much for all your brilliant reviews and ratings on Amazon and Burning Shed. Keep ’em coming, I read them all and they give me energy. It is so good to know that you are finding the Roy book so interesting, and, if I can judge from the reviews, the Nick Harper book, the Wilderness Years, (as well as my memoir on a life spent in Rock Music – ‘In Search Of Captain Beefheart’).
I have bought in new batches of books – all three of those titles. If you would like to purchase a signed copy get in touch.
Thanks – Opher
