excellent biographies
« on: December 11, 2017, 22:08 »
Just read Bruce Dickenson, which was superb
Also recommend Jean-Luc Picard (Star Trek), wonderfully done with pictures as well
Lemmy was brill and fasinating
AC/DC was illuminating
Meatloaf, also by Mick Wall, is waiting at the library as it is a brand new book.
Also read recently, various Carry On stars with Hattie Jacques book as enthralling.
Can you rec any?

I have just enjoyed reading 'Telling Tales' by Jane Yeadon. It is the story of a little girl growing up on a highland farm. She does the things I would have been tempted to do such as jumping off a roof with an umbrella as a parachute, with the expected result. It is an autobiography not a biography.
