CORK ROCK from Rory Gallagher to the Sultans of Ping.

I am very proud of this one!

Me in a book alongside greats like The Sultans of Ping, Frank and Walters, Donnelly and of course Rory Gallagher is enough,

but this is no ordinary book!

I know how much work Mark put into this, 5 years of painstaking research, this beautiful book is going to become the bible of Cork music for decades to come.

It takes you on a journey from my Father's showband days, to my first band REAL MAYONNAIZE and the punk years, through my time with THE CHAPTER HOUSE, finishing up with my most successful  venture METISSE.

It is superbly written and illustrated, And is a must for anyone interested in why we do, what we do.

Skully.

USA release in October 2009.

Actualy..that probably sounded a bit cocky....what I realy meant was that there are just so many world class musicians (who are themselves 'the loaves and fishes')coming out from cork at the moment that he'll probably already be hard at work on the second edition just to keep up with everything thats been happening over the past year alone!!
       Lots o love to all on it, in it and all who wrote it too.
