Any Takers?

Photo: Here's the official hardback cover! Looks rather splendid i reckon


With the forthcoming publication of Sam Knee's "A Scene In Between" book of photos etc from the mid 80's indie scene, and having been approached by 2 people requesting the use of some of my photos in future books,as well as enquiries about my Mixers recordings and artwork I spoke to a friend who suggested doing a book of my own. So...


 I am wondering if there might be some publisher out there who might want to use the collection of unseen photos from the birth of the scene that became known as Creation Records.
I have photos from 1982(The Pastels in Glasgow) to around 1984/5(most of the bands I saw at the Living Room or Room at the Top, like The Times,TV Personalities,June Brides,Jasmine Minks,Nikki Sudden,Biff Bang Pow etc),



as well as other bits,accumulated over that period,things like letters from Alan McGee,Stephen Pastel,The Legend,Grant Morrison,Nikki Sudden, various gig hand bills,cuttings from NME,Sounds,Melody Maker etc with singles,albums,live reviews of those very bands.

Any takers?
