Explosion, a book that commemorates the music scene of Eel Pie Island in the
50s and 60s. This collection of essays, illustrated with archive
photography, is launched on August 1st in conjunction with the opening of
the Eelpiland exhibition at the Stables Gallery and Orleans House in
Twickenham. "I grew up and went to school near Eel Pie Island. It was out of bounds, dangerous and therefore irresistible. It changed my attitude to life for good, I'm delighted to say." ANNIE NIGHTINGALE
