Book Reviews of Graham Bond: The Mighty Shadow
Book Review: Well Written Biography Of A Wasted Talent
Summary: 5 Stars
In telling the life story of the almost forgotten British virtuoso jazz/R'n'B/rock musician, Graham Bond, author Harry Shapiro gives a masterclass in writing rock biographies. Well written, thoroughly researched and objective throughout, he charts the highs (too few) and lows (too many) of the life of a musician's musician. Without Graham Bond there would have been no Cream, no Colosseum and no jazz rock. His recorded legacy can only hint at the excitement, innovation and forward thinking nature of the music. Harry Shapiro does a first rate job at explaining what could have been - and what went wrong. The book, although not shown on Amazon's listings, is now available in an affordable paperback edition.
