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.
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. |
