"Record Makers and Breakers: Voices of the
Independent Rock 'n' Roll Pioneers" by
Honorary Woodie John's new 584-page book has been receiving
superb reaction, including from the record men themselves:
“Your book has just arrived – and after a
5-minute scan I am not using the term lightly when I call it a
‘masterpiece.’ I can’t wait to dig into it.” Art Rupe, Specialty Records
“You talk about a hit record, this is a hit
book!’ Joe Bihari,
Modern Records
“A lot of people are talking about it; there’s a
great street buzz." Marshall
Chess, Chess Records
