The author’s career in music and beyond encompasses what many would perceive as the golden years of British pop. His involvement, right in the middle as well as on the fringes, has brought him into contact with so many household names.
The British rock group The Lower Third came into being early in 1962 and finally died late in 1966. Of the musicians who contributed to the fun two went on to spend the rest of their lives in music.
The first to strike out from the group was Robin Stephen Wyatt (later to become Stephen Wyatt-Gold) . The second was David Robert Jones (who was soon to become David Bowie). This is the story of the first, an ambitious showbiz journeyman, set against the rise and rise of the second who has a story already well documented.
The memoir takes a sometimes 'tongue in cheek' look at how two careers started from the same place and, over time, diverged spectacularly. It covers Arabian nights, African safaris, romance, relationships, military manoeuvres and several world tours.
