RICHARD CLIFF A HEAD FULL OF MUSIC

Foreword by Bob StanleyOn a sunny Saturday morning in May 1956  a fifteen-year-old  then called
Harry Webb  was mooching down Waltham Cross High Street. He heard some music blaring out of a
parked car. It stopped him in his tracks. The song was 'Heartbreak Hotel' by Elvis Presley. It
sounded like nothing he had ever heard before. In that instant  the schoolboy who was destined
to take the hit parade by storm as Cliff Richard fell in love with rock and roll. It gave him
the thrill  the purpose and the mission that has shaped his life ever since. Cliff lives in and
for music. And with 65 years as a hitmaker  the music filling his head is a broad category. His
soundtrack begins by blasting us all back into that first life-changing explosion of rock and
roll  and also includes great soul stars such as Aretha Franklin  longtime colleagues like
Elton John  and much-missed close friends Cilla Black and Olivia Newton-John. This book is
meaningful to Cliff on many levels. The 30 or so songs here that make up the soundtrack to his
life have each moved him deeply  but it's also about the legendary artists he met  and often
got to know. He shares those stories and memories with you  too. A Head Full of Music is a
vibrant personal journey for Cliff  and it's a joy to accompany him on it. Get wired for sound
with him and read on.
