Reviews

“This is an extraordinary undertaking. Easy On The Eye deserves serious praise for the book’s superb design and the detailed annotations, but most of all for finally making this stunning cache of images widely available.”

Our thanks to Shindig Magazine’s Grahame Bent for a wonderful five start review of Boom Boom Boom Boom, The Blues Photographs of Brian Smith. It is always nice when people get what we’re all about. Our designer will be asking for the afternoon off when he sees this! Though to be honest just about all the reviews for this title have been glowing. Anyhow, we will attempt to get them online over the next week or so but needless to say the Shindig Review is already up there!

In the meantime here is a nice photograph of two blues musicians who had just taken delivery of a copy of the book. That’s Paul Jones on the right and Oli MacDonald. Paul did the foreword for the book and Mark Stratford was able to present him with a copy at the recent UK Blues Awards evening. Proudly showing off the BACK cover!!
