Customer Reviews


Rating Review
Customer Rating If this isn't the definitive book on an artist’s life, then I don’t know what is. The authors love and respect for Ewan shine out on every page. I can’t believe there is a single song missing from his amazing output. If I have any criticism it’s that some of the music is written in his own hand presumably and sometimes difficult to read. Overall this book is all that any one could want and more!
