New book on John Surman

[RogerF]

A new book has been published on a British jazz legend; "John Surman - The Belting Zodiac" (Soundworld, 2011) is now available from FMR Records and priced at a very reasonable £12.99 including p+p in the UK). It weighs in at over 250 pages and author Mike Pearson (who wrote "Conversations in British Jazz" - Soundworld, 2004) has included a huge number of newspaper cuttings and photographs, many of which have never been published before. This is compulsory reading for anyone interested in contemporary British jazz and is highly recommended. More details here: John Surman: The Belting Zodiac

Thanks, Roger. Didn't know about this.

One I'll pick up for the summer holidays. Ideal reading (and accompanying listening) for my trip to Devon/Cornwall.
