He has a little 'booklet' detailing the project, and the techniques -
There's a limited number, all are signed, and they are circa ยฃ3 -
You just need to contact him via his website, he's a right nice fella - www.russellherron.com/

Who can forget EKAPS Jarvis Cocker heads up, and we've had Graham Coxon, Bobby Gillespie, and who can forget the Mel C signed autobiography........cough.
You can pre-order the signed bookplated Bernie Taupin memoirs from the lovely people at Booka for ยฃ25 -

Thinking that may be an excellent read.

Recommended Art Books, by mcgill14 on Aug 26, 2023 14:07:01 GMT 1, The new Frozen Spit book by Rae arrived and I'm a little disappointed. The blurb said:
"Each book will be signed by RAE and also include an original hand drawing (each one unique) plus 2 vinyl stickers."
The original drawing is there as are the stickers but the book isn't signed. ๐ก

Itโs a self-produced book as far as I can see from an under-rated hard working artist. Iโve bought a few pieces over the years and they never disappoint.

Recommended Art Books, by John The Badgers on Sept 10, 2023 13:15:21 GMT 1, A great recommendation Lroy, I will add that to my list of excellent music books posted on the brilliant book thread.
May I also add a recommendation of one of my favourite music autobiographies?
Etta James - Rage to Survive, such a great book.
A real history lesson of music at the time, and a life story which would make Keith Richards raise an eyebrow. Would certainly recommend -

Recommended Art Books, by Acme Thunderer on Sept 10, 2023 16:30:58 GMT 1, Iโve preordered this Chemical Brothers book which is officially released on 26th October 2023. Theyโve always had iconic album/single covers designed by Kate Gibb so this will be one of those music books that makes it into the art bookcase.
This special edition is limited to 1,500 copies and comes with a hard slipcase, unique cover and a Kate Gibb risograph print (printed by Calvertโs London). Also, if you preorder from Rough Trade there are exclusive postcards.

Last month, there was a deluxe edition of 500 copies from White Rabbit with a bonus Kate Gibb print but I missed out on that version.

Has anyone any decent recommendations for art autobiographies/biographies they can recommend?
Likewise with any music biographies/autobiographies?
No preference on genre, just interesting life stories.
Appreciate any input.
