   Ian Abrahams's Blurbs
About me:
I'm a freelance journalist, at the moment mainly writing on rock music. I'm the author of 'Hawkwind - Sonic Assassins' and 'Strange Boat - Mike Scott & The Waterboys'.

I regularly contribute to 'Record Collector' magazine and have also written for 'The Guardian', 'Bass Guitar', 'Aural Innovations', 'Credit Today' and 'Commercial Credit Risk'. The latter two aren't very rock 'n' roll.

Music I Like
Hawkwind - Wind of Change

Hawkwind - Right Stuff/Angels of Death

Old TV - Who Remembers These?

Hi, thanks for adding me to you page, have a look at my band's site too (That Legendary Wooden Lion).
I do a bit of freelance engineering when I am not fronting the band (or scuba diving - which is also not very rock and roll - but fun)
