When Muddy Waters came to London at the start of the '60s, a kid
from Boston called Joe Boyd was his tour manager; when Dylan went
electric at the Newport Festival, Joe Boyd was plugging in his
guitar; when the summer of love got going, Joe Boyd was running the
coolest club in London, the UFO; when a bunch of club regulars
called Pink Floyd recorded their first single, Joe Boyd was the
producer; when a young songwriter named Nick Drake wanted to give
his demo tape to someone, he chose Joe Boyd. More than any previous
'60s music autobiography, Joe Boyd's White Bicycles offers the real
story of what it was like to be there at the time. His greatest
coup is bringing to life the famously elusive figure of Nick Drake
- the first time he's been written about by anyone who knew him
well. As well as the '60s heavy-hitters, this book also offers
wonderfully vivid portraits of a whole host of other musicians:
everyone from the great jazzman Coleman Hawkins to the folk diva
Sandy Denny, Lonnie Johnson to Eric Clapton, The Incredible String
Band to Fairport Convention.
We live in a broken world, but we do not serve a broken God; we
serve a God of "bigger." Bigger will motivate you to trust Him with
what's broken in your life by surrendering to the larger process of
rebuilding. It is unique because it presents you with the
opportunity to journey alongside the author and Nehemiah. Somehow
the idea of having someone to walk with lightens the load.
