Harvey Andrews

A Writer of Songs (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the second volume of his musical memoirs, Harvey recounts the highs and lows of the 60s and 70s when he was recording with major record labels. Recalling the recording of Writer of Songs and Friends of Mine, he explains how and why he wrote the songs, the mostly untrue legends that surround his song Soldier, and how it caused a furore that led to it being mentioned in the House of Commons. He also explains why Hey Sandy was very nearly consigned to the bin, yet went on to be #2 in New Zealand and his first big success at The Cambridge Folk Festival. It was a time of TV appearances, radio shows and tours. Paul Simon, Phil Ochs, Tom Paxton, Steve Goodman, Ozzy Osborne, Focus, The Kinks, ELO, Abba and many others crossed his path. Find out why a gun was drawn on him in a dressing room, how a Dutch TV show went horribly wrong, and how he turned down the opportunity to be a Euro pop idol. Like his songs, his story is often funny, occasionally sad, but like his final album title - that's life!
