  ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

  Our thanks to Nigel Osborne and Tom Seabrook at Jawbone Press for taking on the book, and to Tom for all his hard work on proofing, typesetting, and indexing. Huge thanks to the following, who all contributed to the end result: Hannah Lawrence for undertaking the research at BBC Written Archives Centre in Caversham (a location not wholly convenient to either Belfast or Connecticut); Olwyn Dawson (always awesome) for help with interview transcribing; Rainer Frilund for generously checking the Select Discography and suggesting additions and corrections; Simon Atkinson for generously providing the 1969–99 concert listings; Mark Case for the cover design; Bob Lefsetz for allowing us to reproduce his Letter about ‘Blowin’ Free’; and the eagle-eyed Tony Bacon.
