Hello all. Here is some news about the book. First thank you all for the emails and orders. The book is doing brilliantly . It WILL be picked up by a chain of book stores in london BUT till the ink is dry on Tuesday I cant say too much. As for details of the book ? It is a 200 page experience so it is difficult to explain in a few words . I will add a synopsis to the Somehitwonders site for you all . ok. As a taster here are some chapter headings and snipits ....Oh Little Star of Hamilton ......Brian discovers he is adopted and joins the navy...........Three perfect gentleman and a mini van............while at Vicmons carpets Brian joins The League of the Gentlemen...........Off to see Mr Mellin..........Brian knows a contact and gets a recording deal .............Slow motion ( cant you guess !!!) Lollipop man and the Paper dolls.........the boys get a tour with the once famous girl group..............Get on the line --all you ever get from me ( again you guys and gals will know these ) .. Great Scott its Batman and Robin .......Phil Meets Nick and Mike and a long haired person plays guitar at an audition and gets the job ! ............Torpey:Sweet's Pete Best ...........a page for ole Frank who decided not to re join as .... well the band would never make it would they ??...........Midnight beneath the stars..........Alexander Graham Who?....................Funny How Sweet CO CO Can Be...........These cover the hits and details of 71. ok guys an order just arrived . I will have a News page on the "Somehits" site next week too BUT I will only list things that are "in the bag" Vaguely ....Three radio staions are looking at doing competitons etc..... a book chain 99% will stock and feature it in london.. a local book store in London will take it . A Rock publication is trying to make a place to feature it Now rather than in October (when it has a place) On the site there is a page for the first 100 people , your books will be numbered and signed . Its more than half gone now .....with ten days till the book comes out ! ................. there are pics a plenty in the book. there are discographies and not just the usual kind ! I dont want to spoil it for you! Like all of you , I have never held a copy of this book in my hand , as an author I can tell you that it is an emotional experience to do so . I get my first copy next week and will immediately start sending them accross the world so the early birds will have it before it is out ! Look to the site for the synopsis . It may be there by this evening . Before I go ........I wrote this book purely because no one else did. Had some great writer done the job first , well then who would I be to even try? BUT after forty one years no one had and I used my perogative as a life long Sweet fan and also as a writer. I have an overveiw which allowed me to say ... Knock "stairway to the stars" though in private I love the song...........so I had a responsibility to be truthfull and sensible. I hope that what shines through is a feeling that I will share with you all.......a love of Brian, Mick,Steve and Andy....of Chinn and Chapman and Wainman, of squeeely guitars and layered harmonies and most of all...........three feet of long blonde hair that said I AM A STAR. Enough emotion! I must get back to my site and your orders. Out there the General public too will love this book, my original publishers "Helter Skelter" said ... your too like an essay on sweet, make it a story , dont give the game away and make it so that the man in the street who just remembers a few songs will understand it " they were right , of course. you lot know every thing about sweet but I want to tell those who dont ......we need to educate the unwashed masses!
