Early Pink Floyd producer Joe Boyd
is putting the finishing touches to his autobiography, looking at his
work in the music industry in the sixties.
"White Bicycles: Making Music In
The 1960s" is published by Serpent's Tail on 27th May 2006. It covers
his work with the Syd Barrett line up of the Floyd, where he worked on
their session at Sound Techniques Studios, and on the single release of
Arnold Layne.

Joe Boyd -
White Bicycles: Making Music In The 1960s |
However, Pink Floyd were a small
part of his work; other artists he worked with in his roles as record
and film producer included Muddy Waters, the Incredible String Band and
Richard Thompson. He also founded and was the musical director of the
UFO Club in London with John "Hoppy" Hopkins.
The book promises some
fascinating insights into his career; he worked at the mighty Elektra
Records for some time until he was fired - the label were reluctant to
sign Eric Clapton and Pink Floyd, which Boyd thought a mistake.
We should have more information
on the book in due course. In the meantime, advance orders for the
book, at time of writing at a discount, can be made through the
following special links: Amazon UK, Canada, France, or Germany.
