"I know that you are currently working on a biography project. Can you give us an update on this new project?

It's a big job indeed. I spend nearly two or even four hours in video per chapter with Anthony Boile and we only dealt with three! We work by theme and not necessarily chronologically. So it's not a traditional biography. I often quote the five themes that I like so much: the 5M. Namely music, martial arts, motorcycle, marijuana and masturbation!!! And Anthony has expanded these five themes to about ten. In any case, he works well because he prepares his files and questions very well. That changes from those journalists who always ask the same stupid questions. I also answer them: "I'm sorry, but I have paint that dries on the wall and I'll leave you! Otherwise for this book, it will also be necessary to find a good distribution abroad, especially in England or even in the United States. This requires good translators."

Back to school for my French GCSE https://amzn.to/3vxxzzH

384 pages is fairly decent though.

No English version will mean it will get lost in translation very easily

Isn't there an English version? The quote above suggests there is.

Yeah, it'd be interesting to see him to do a... not a Song by Song type of thing, like Hugh did... but it'd nice for him to delve into his recollections of how it all went down albums-wise etc.

I would imagine some UK publisher might be interested to get this translated and published but perhaps they are first looking at what it does in the European market. Ordered it but, even do I did French for a year at uni, I fear reading a complete book in French is a bit out of my league nowadays.

Fellow Dutchman Marcel (Firebird on these forums I think) has one of his photos published in this book.
