New Musical Stones book project


Last night I sent a series of e-mails and photographs to Andy Aliffe to help him with his book project. Andy is a Victorian expert and actor. He is putting together a superb book called 'Rolling Out the Stones - The Original Quarry Men: The Story of the
19th Century ‘Lakeland Rock Bands’'
which draws together all the stories of the three 19th century Keswick families who played lithophones as a job; The Richardsons (pictured), The Tills and the Abrahams. It is shaping up into quite a read and should be ready for printing later this year. I'll keep you posted.
