Dave's first home was a beach chalet in Cornwall. The plain wooden shack had none of the things we take for granted like electricity, sewage or water.
Cornwall in the 1950s had no TV and only two BBC radio stations, so he had very limited exposure to popular music.
He was seven when Elvis and Cliff Richard hit the charts.
Ten years later he was living in West London, the epicentre of the underground music scene that shook the music business like an earthquake. He went to the first free festivals in Hyde Park and a host of gigs where he saw groups like Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, The Who and Genesis in their earliest incarnations before they became global superstars.
He spent the next few years trying to emulate his heroes using clapped out and home made guitars and amplifiers.
'A highly recommended read not only for fans of grass roots music but also for those wishing to experience a flavour of those times.'
