Following the untimely death of Jon Hiseman this book can now be bought at Amazon Hi, It's 
        called "Playing the band..." and covers Jon's life in music 
        spanning four decades, playing with many of Britain's top musicians and 
        relates their experiences at the 1969 and 1970 Bath Festivals (which I 
        have sent you an extract about earlier). As 
        it's being published independently, we could use all the online promotional 
        help we can get, so if there's any way of you mentioning/posting it as 
        part of your excellent website...we'd be really grateful.  |
