Perceptively written. DAILY TELEGRAPH A compelling and compulsive read for anyone interested in contemporary music, which I found very difficult to put down. HULL DAILY MAIL Well reseached... paints a more complete picture than we have had before. SUNDAY TIMES 'CULTURE' Sandford has the edge. Plus he appears to have uncovered the true inspiration for the character of Major Tom, a revalation worth waiting all these years for. THE LIST
