Sadly, since I started work on this book and its predecessor, Open Up and Bleed, the following interviewees have passed away: Ron Asheton, Les Conn, Hugh Attwooll, Carol Clerk and Derek ‘Dek’ Fearnley. All of them were enthralling raconteurs; I will miss speaking to them again, as I will Ian MacDonald, always one of the most thoughtprovoking writers on MOJO, and Mick Ronson, who was unfailingly tolerant with me as a star-struck, novice writer.
