David Hepworth has spent far too much of his life thinking about pop records and rock stars. Thanks to TV programmes like Whistle Test and magazines like Smash Hits and Q he has managed to turn this into gainful employment.
Among his best-selling books are Never A Dull Moment: 1971 The Year That Rock Exploded, Uncommon People and Abbey Road. His latest, Hope I Get Old Before I Die, is about our rock heroes in their Third Age.
