NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS Richard Thompson came of age during an extraordinary moment in 1960s Britain - as music began to reflect a great cultural awakening, the guitarist and songwriter co-founded Fairport Convention, ushering in the era of folk rock. An intimate memoir of personal discovery and creative intensity, Beeswing vividly captures the life of an international music icon in a world on the cusp of change 'Honest in its self-appraisal, often very moving and sometimes extremely funny - this quiet joy of a memoir is just what you'd expect from one of the finest British musicians of the last 50 years.' RICHARD WILLIAMS 'With Beeswing [Thompson] adds master memoirist to his long list of artistic accomplishments . . . fascinating.' BOB MOULD
