Reviews
As unexpected and amusing as the man himself.
Gyles Brandreth
To say Mike Read is brilliant is an understatement. It’s like saying Dom Pérignon is a cold drink.
Don Black
The man really knows his music.
Dave Hill, Slade
Anyone who can form a group with Razor Ruddock and Charlie Brocket has a truly original mind.
