"A thoroughly entertaining read, a travelogue through Nashville and the deep south of the USA, culminating in a trip to Memphis. Our guide is a UK evangelist for Americana music. Oliver is an engaging raconteur, and the narrative slips along easily, capturing the more scuzzy elements of the music industry but also its glories, and locates run-down studios where great sounds were laid down in days long gone. The book is an engrossing journey in its own right, and I came away from reading it with a greater understanding of the mindset behind the lonesome sounds Oliver brings to Winchester, from this surprisingly alien landscape." - Prof. Brian Hinton, author of South By South West, A Road Map Of Alternative Country.
