Description
Reviews
Its [the] adherence to home-truths... which gives Small Hours its power... just as good as Thomson’s acclaimed studies of Kate Bush and Phil Lynott Mojo
Unflinchingly critical of Martyn’s failings and his substance-fuelled excesses (and) equally glowing in its praise of his finest achievements as a genre-blurring performer. Insightful and beautifully written. Shindig!
This painstaking, eloquent biography... balances the fans assiduousness with a critics sieving action. Observer
Tethers the sometimes golden music to the often savage man, retaining sympathy for his subject and the casualties he caused. Classic Rock, 9/10
