Summary: Out Of Date
Comment: Written by U.K.-based authors Howard Elson and John Brunton and published in 1981 [with a Foreword by Gene Pitney] this 159-page book covers a multitude of artists in alphabetical order from America to The Zombies, giving you a bit of information on their careers, and where they are "today."

Problem is, not only is it sadly out-of-date [a lot of the principals have since passed away - e.g. The Singing Nun], but from a North American's perspective, it dwells too much on artists virtually unheard of on this side of the Atlantic [or Pacific]. I mean, Aphrodite's Child? Jack Bruce? Jimmy Cliff? John Leyton? Alvin Stardust?

Not only do we not care "what happened to them" - most of us never even heard of them!!

When I picked up my copy in a "bargain bin" [fifteen years ago] at least some of the information was factual at that time. Why it's still available is anyone's guess.

Still, there are some decent photos inside and, at the price asked, not a bad bargain.
