Title: Maart's book Post by: Squiggle on February 16, 2019, 05:05:23 PM Maart’s last few hours were spent with him telling me his wishes about his book and I promised that I would finish it for him. I now feel ready to do this but I need some help. Maart had written chapters up to 1990 along with other paragraphs and ideas. I am trawling through his emails and other documents on his computer as it is important that as much as possible is written in Maart’s own words.
I’m looking for transcripts/recordings of any interviews both pre and post 1990 along with any good stories that will be interesting for readers, especially the humorous ones that gave Maart such delight. Obviously, I have all Fairport’s tour/Cropredy programmes and some of Tull’s along with videos/DVDs made about Fairport. I also have the Q&A session that Maart did on Talkawhile which has provided me with some valuable information. Is there anyone out there who recorded Maart’s farewell speech at Cropredy? I don’t want anyone to go to a lot of trouble in providing me with something that I already have so, if you have any suggestions or can point me in the right direction please email me first at squigglerecords@btinternet.com Hard copies of anything can be sent to me: Jan Lane PO Box 31 Harlech Gwynedd LL46 2WQ Yes, I have always kept my maiden name! Many, many thanks in advance, Jan Title: Re: Maart's book Post by: Amethyst (Jenny) on February 16, 2019, 05:51:51 PM Good luck with this Jan, it will be a wonderful read and I know
You will do a great job... xxx Title: Re: Maart's book Post by: Squiggle on February 17, 2019, 04:25:13 PM Just a thought. I don't do Facebook etc., only Talkawhile, so is there anyone who could post my request on the Jethro Tull Forum and Jethro Tull Facebook for me please with the thread title Maartin Allcock's autobiography?
Many thanks, Jan Title: Re: Maart's book Post by: Adam on February 17, 2019, 07:21:14 PM Jan,
Maart did a couple of really good interviews with a New Day magazine (Tull fanzine). I’m sure that David Rees and Martin Webb will only be too happy to help dig them out. The website is below. Best of luck in finishing the book!
