Just to let everyone know, my individual concert photograph books have been deleted from the Blurb platform. The equivalent books that are on amazon.com have been removed. Looking back, they were too expensive on Blurb, due to being very high quality print on demand art books. I am considering a full compilation book via amazon, later in the year, or early next year. No concrete plans yet.

The live photo book will probably come out in November.
I am thinking it will be all of the 1978 - 1983 gig photos, possibly plus some from Walsall in 1991 and a small selection of early Slade II in the one book.
I'm not going to compete with sales of THE NOIZE.

The photo book on Amazon will be the same size as THE NOIZE. Not sure of page count yet.

I'm going to be restoring a batch of photos every day. Quite time consuming, as i am trying to really make them striking.

Here's a quick peek at some pages. I have not been doing the shows in order, just picked up photo albums to scan. Sorry about the image size. It's either huge and you can't see it all in the forum, or not quite big enough.
I might re-do some of the earliest images.

I have done some of a 1979 gig today. Still lots to do - here's a peek at several pages - lots of gaps in there. I can see this book being as thick as THE NOIZE. However, I am thinking of giving it a three month run at the most, then un-publishing it.

I think it will be done by Monday, then I am going to set about pricing and doing the publishing admin on it.

Watch this space. It will only be available via Amazon.
