Guest - Brian Southall

Mark Punter

Available for over a year

Brian talks about his life as a journalist for nearly a decade from the swingin’ sixties through to the heady days of the seventies and in that time progressed from being a cub reporter on The Essex Chronicle to a feature writer on a leading pop paper. This is a story that starts in the not so fast lane and arrives at the racy heart of the British music business.
