David Sheppard

A sonic alchemist to the stars, Brian Eno's address book is a veritable who's who of rock and pop. On Some Faraway Beach is the first serious, critical examination of his life and music, from an idiosyncratic childhood to 1960s art school and the sharp end of pop charts around the world. The book's author, David Sheppard, will be talking to to Whitstable music journalist Michael O'Connell.
