    Lovely to understand Brian?s take on his exit from the band. Having read the recent book, I realised there was a bit more to it. Real shame, he?d have been even more brilliant had he been allowed the time he needed?.shame

    Not very well put together that interview if that’s how they left it. Dwells on making Brian look quite bitter instead of getting more input about the music etc. Poor

      I admit to not having watched all the clips. I?ve only so far watched the one that was titled ?I ended up 6 stone?.
      It?s a real shame he didn?t want to be quoted in the book. Graeme is such a great writer, he would have done a stellar job at putting Brian?s words across. I think he did grand actually making sure Brian had prominence in the book considering he decided that he didn?t want his interview(s) used. I guess Brian just felt that his words wouldn?t be his words? Who knows?
      I?ll have to watch the other clips.
