THIS ROCK ‘n’ ROLL WON’T LAST YOU KNOW
This is a limited edition hardback and all copies will be signed by the Author.
With forewords by Rod Argent, from Argent and The Zombies, Del Bromham from Stray, and Graham Oliver from Saxon.
This Rock 'n' Roll Won’t Last You Know, charts John Verity’s journey, as he follows his dream of fame and fortune in a business guaranteed to break your heart.
From humble beginnings playing in local groups around his hometown, Bradford, West Yorkshire, John would soon be travelling the world, sharing the stage with his heroes, including Jimi Hendrix, Mountain, and Janis Joplin.
On joining Argent in 1974 John soon came to the attention of others in the business, leading to work, as a musician, with Ringo Starr, Colin Blunstone, Keith Emerson, Greg Lake, Tim Rose, Diana Dors, and many others.
