Legendary progressive rock and jazz drummer, Bill Bruford, has written a brilliant new autobiography, published by the good folks at Jawbone Press, so I lucked out and got this chance to talk to him on Beyond Beyond is Beyond on Thursday!
The book is absolutely brilliant and covers all the eras of Bill’s career, from Yes to King Crimson to UK to Gong to Genesis to Bruford to Earthworks, and we’ll definitely have lots to talk about on East Village Radio on Thursday at noon eastern, so be sure to tune in! Plus I’ll be giving away a copy of the book to one lucky winner. Email me your favorite Bruford tune at beyondbeyondisbeyond (at) gmail (dot) com for your chance to win it!
