Thanks to Jerry for this new thread.

Len's book is a sheer treat from end to end. In an earlier thread about this book Matt Milton commented that the biographical section was rather short. He is quite right; but Len has been very crafty and sneaked in a short tale about Joe in the notes to almost every song! In the end you get a very vivid impression of a full life lived through songs.

One aspect of the book which truly deserves credit is the quality of the illustrations and photographs. Len has found some lovely pictures to accompany the text; Joe couldn't have found a better person to 'do him justice'.
