Re: Eyewitness: The Who



***BEWARE OF THIS BOOK***

Please pass this on to all lists.

I got an email from Chris Charlesworth last night and
he has asked me to pass this onto "everyone" I know
and that you all are aware of this book.

He writes:
"Basically it's a piece of crap, not least because in
listing every single Who gig 
up until Keith's death and quite a few afterwards,
they've completely (and  all
too obviously) ripped off the Concert File book.
They've also ripped  off
loads of stuff from Dear Boy (29 separate passages),
the Swedish book, Hope I Die, Maximum R&B and just
about every other decent Who book that's 
ever been published. Looking through it, it seems to
me that the author has 
done no 'original' research whatsoever."

Legal action is being taken at this time by Omnibus
Press and their attorneys.
