Al Stewart

"Glasgow native Al Stewart emerged from the sixties London folk scene to enjoy success with his 1969 album Love Chronicles, but it was his million-selling Year of The Cat, and the Top Ten single of the same name, that made him a star." "This is the first ever biography of Stewart, written with complete access to private diaries, journals and correspondence. Leaning heavily on extended interviews with Al - and many other sixties folk stars - this is a vivid insider's account of the pivotal coffee house scene which built the careers of Paul Simon - with whom Al shared a flat in 1965 - and many others. It is also an intriguing memoir of a '60s folk star's trials and tribulations through stardom in the seventies and cult success in subsequent decades." "The True Life Adventures of a Folk Rock Troubadour is the official and authorised account of Al Stewart's rich and eventful career: from Glasgow birth up to his critically acclaimed 2001 EMI album Down in the Cellar."--Jacket.
