Iain Matthews : A People's History

Iain Matthews – A People’s History is an oral history of one of Britain’s leading singer-songwriters. One of the founding members of folk-rock pioneers Fairport Convention, Iain left the band in 1969 to further a career in music that now spans almost 60 years. He created the chart-topping act Matthews Southern Comfort in 1970, who had a number one single with a cover of Joni Mitchell’s ‘Woodstock’, and in the 50-plus years since is widely acknowledged as one of the torchbearers responsible for bringing American folk and country music to British audiences.Author: Houghton, Richard,author Contributors: Houghton, Richard,author Binding: hardcover Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Published/Release Date: 24 Oct 2025 Format: Hardback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Spenwood Books Author/Director/Artist: Richard Houghton Dimension (cm): 156x234x15 mm Package Dimension (cm): 15x234x156 mm Item Weight (g): 474 Package Weight (g): 413
