The Strange Brew - artist stories behind the greatest music ever recorded
Music:Music Interviews
Neil Storey, former head of press at Island Records, delves into 12 pivotal tracks from Island’s first decade. We explore Chris Blackwell’s label formation, the shift from Jamaica to London, and the transition from ska to the British rock scene. Neil has edited The Island Book of Records 1959-68 offering a unique glimpse into the label’s operations and record releases. This authoritative book showcases album cover designs, photography, and perspectives from key individuals of that period.
