And Still Another Book -

Postby bosunbob » 21 Jul 2020, 10:14

Hello.
This searching on eBay is revealing a small gold mine of material relating to The Shadows and allied personnel.
This time, another Jet Harris bio has popped up:

Cliffhanger: The Life and Times of Jet Harris. Mike Cook.

Once more any feedback from readers here would be most welcome.

Cheers.
Bruce.

Do not touch this book with a bargepole!!!
It is a poorly written account of Jet' s problems over the years and an extremely
depressing read.
Compiled by someone called Mike Porterfield a one time friend of Jet.

Thank you Mike.
I can do without reading a book, so depressing, I need to take valium before
I open the front cover :D

Speaking of the front cover: the books author is credited as being, Mike Cook.

*An update: have just returned again to eBay. An image showing the back cover has printed
at the bottom edge this: Mike Cook (Mike Porterfield).
Pehaps Mike Cook is the ghost writer?

Cheers
