The Worst of Friends

[Joliet Jake Blues]

Just been reading a brief review of Colin Schindler's new book, "The Worst of Friends" about the Joe Mercer - Malcolm Allison partnership, it sounds fascinating. That era was my favourite time as a Blue so it should be worth a read. Colin Schindler is giving a talk about the book at Waterstones in early April, quite fancy going to that one.

I heard about this. Where can I get a copy of this?

 

[Joliet Jake Blues]

Waterstone's probably. Not sure of the publication date but must be soon if he's giving the talk in April (2nd I think)

Where's Waterstones in Manchester?

I'm not a book person.

Allison Wonderland by Steve Mingle is excellent and sounds as though it covers the same ground.
