Sobre IBD

Rock and roll poetry! PHANTOM ENGINEER is the creative reaction to fifty years of listening to music, playing music, recording music. The natural joyousness of rock is big in these pages, plus the sadness of remembering those who died young. Jimi Hendrix, Jaco Pastorius, Whitney Houston, Amy Winehouse, Lisa Lopes, Syd Barrett, Nick Drake and Nicky Hopkins are all remembered for talent (or genius) that bloomed young and died young. Meanwhile, the Phantom Engineer pulls the strings and makes the blues and the zydeco appear!

    Edward V Bonner
