Minstrels, Poets and Vagabonds comes with a unique internet listening post companion. Inside the book is the website address and password which allows readers to listen to 115 tracks by bands featured in the book... This is not about the bright lights and millionaire megastar pop and rock bands as plenty has been written about them already. This is the story of what rock music is really about... working bands waiting for that big break, hurtling up and down motorways in the back of a Transit van, dingy dressing rooms and dodgy PA systems. Some of the musicians author Robert Fields knew went on to fame and fortune. Others who never quite made the big time, well they just do what they do best - keep on rockin' ! This book takes you back to the halcyon days of standing in a Glasgow pub or club with a pint or a Bacardi and Coke in your hand, rockin the night away.
If anyone knows about the rock music scene in Glasgow over the past five decades, it's Robert Fields. He's been there, done it and ripped the T-shirt as a musician, DJ, promoter, band manager and club owner.
