George Melly was a larger than life figure, a jazz singer, raver, raconteur, writer, art lover and cultural icon. This book goes chronologically through his life and work, taking in his formative years, his emergence as a jazz star, his legendary books and other varied activities. It also includes interviews with his wife Diana, his son Tom, cartoonist and fellow jazzer Wally Fawkes, plus contributions from other people who knew him. So fasten your seat belt and take a ride on the Mellymobile... Chris Wade is a writer, musician and filmmaker. He runs the acclaimed music project Dodson and Fogg, writes non fiction books and makes films. His other work includes Cutey and the Sofaguard, an audiobook narrated by Rik Mayall.
