“Stuart Lloyd had great access to the band (plus those in their inner sanctum including wives and ex-girlfriends), resulting in very frank, revealing human portraits. It contains a lot of amusing and amazing behind-the-scenes stories. Stu “takes us behind the showbiz curtain” as Jane Gazzo writes. It wasn’t all beer and skittles.” - Sydney Scoop.
