BOBBY WHITLOCK PUBLISHES HIS AUTOBIOGRAPHY THIS WINTER

From Yourwaytomusic.com

Bobby Whitlock will be publishing his autobiography this winter.

The thing that impresses us about Bobby is his amazing powers of recollection and great story telling. Yet again, the full story of Derek the Dominos has never been told from a band member. Eric Clapton’s memory of events in the late sixties and early seventies is very sketchy. Many people who bought his biography were very disappointed about the lack of new information on this period. Bobby Whitlock puts that right in this book. The full story behind the ‘Layla’ album is told including how and why the front painting was used as the cover of the album. How the drug fueled sessions produced one of the greatest albums of all time. Their live shows were legendary. Ultimately drugs would destroy the group.

.Eric Clapton writes a heartfelt foreword.
