Editorial reviews

Radio music journalist Alan Cross' concise description of Jonathan Richman's life and career is a fascinating tribute to this cult rock star. Always influenced by and influencing the punk movement, yet always somehow an outsider, Richman has been making quirky, inspired music for over four decades. From his humble beginnings in Boston to his international fame and his long-standing group of devoted fans, Cross points out that although Richman has never had the commercial success of a huge rock band, he has had a long slow-building career that has allowed him to experiment, and his listeners have benefited.
