Before becoming a freelance writer, David Roberts was Editor of the annual Guinness Book of British Hit Singles & Albums and Guinness Rockopedia. In 2006 he was chief content writer and filmmaker for the British Music Experience at London's o2. He was General Editor for Quintet's Rock Chronicles encyclopaedia in 2012 before authoring his own guidebooks to music locations, Rock Atlas UKand US, and then the biography Stephen Stills: Change Partners and Rock 'N' Roll Fantasy, an oral history of Free and Bad Company. Before his debut novel, Muddy Water and follow-up Florida Key, Neil Watson had previously written about motor homes and boats and his epic solo bike-ride across the USA. He has worked in marketing, magazine publishing, and even had a spell in the music business. But his lifelong music passion is for the recordings of Harry Nilsson--he maintains that his proudest moment came when he was asked to select the tracks for a Nilsson double CD release. His third novel is a French farce titled Mr. Tap.
