                Good News! Looks like Dec Hickey’s magnificent ‘From Heaven To Heaven’ book is going to be reissued, along with a 7” containing a previously unheard 1983 interview with Bernard.  Slipcased too! If you missed it before, now’s your chance to own a copy (and at a much cheaper price than you’d pay for a used copy on eBay). If you’ve never read it, I strongly advise that you buy it.  It is the Definitive book on the band, IMO.  Gorgeous photos, wonderful ‘insider’ accounts. A real labour of love for the band.  https://www.roughtrade.c...1-1984-at-close-quarters

                I finished re-reading my signed copie a few weeks ago, while listening to the corresponding bootlegs. Fan-tastic ! Thanks Dec   Edited by user 18 June 2024 02:51:16(UTC)

Very nice indeed.  Although, sadly, the slipcase got a bit of a 'ding' during transit. Yeah - the interview is the one from Rorschach Testing recorded backstage at the Bournemouth gig on 02/12/83.  I think, it isn't quite complete though (going on memory from one of Dec's Facebook posts). It's a great interview and there's genuine warmth between the two men.
