Geddys nose Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Alex does a typical Witty Forward, It’s a mixture of facts and stories and guest stories. Lots and lots of Fender at the start and then Ric, Gibson and the rest, all with amazing pictures. Lovely book, Will take me a while read it. It’s a lot better than I imagined it would be back in February. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmccombe7 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Think for £20 its a great bargain but i still grudged the £40 i was gonna have to pay but i may live to regret cancelling. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's earned it! That's a great interview, thanks for posting. Rush have been probably my biggest musical inspiration right back to the 70's and although i was heavily influenced by Neil in my days behind the kit, they may well be one of the few bands in my musical history that i have had an equal admiration for all the members involved, not only as musicians and songwriters but as people with a passion for what i love......And i still haven't ordered the book! Fair play Ged. Edited December 20, 2018 by John T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Having watched the VID clip and seeing the physical size of the book i now wish i'd bought it. I hate when that happens. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Steve Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 two very minor annoyances before I can get my hands on my copy First, I'd pre-ordered with a debit card that has now been cancelled by my bank (long story) so the initial payment fell over and I've only just got round to updating the payment info. Which means that, second, it is due to be delivered tomorrow, but unless they can catch me before 9.15 (and they won't, Amazon never deliver anything before mid-afternoon at the very earliest) I'll be away playing a couple of gigs and won't be home until Sunday. Here's hoping that they can find a neighbour who is at home, rather than taking it back to the depot or leaving it on the doorstep. On the plus side, I did pre-order when the listing went up so it's only cost me £18.59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestPoetry Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 For that price, I'm ordering it. Not bothered if it takes a month and I save £30 odd. Looks like a nice piece with lots of cool pictures and detail. I hope the Wal and Steinbergers get the love they deserve! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
