Synopsis of UK Subs content: There are numerous references to the UK Subs in this fine tome, as you would expect from a book written by one of the UK Subs' main players.
This is a fascinating inside-view of Alvin playing with a true Punk legend. Gibbs' style is to the point and never short of interest.
This is a real Subs fans' treat... hey Mr Gibbs! Ain't it about time you penned a companion volume 'On Tour With The UK Subs'?

23 September 2010: UPDATE FROM ALVIN GIBBS:

"Both 'Destroy' and 'Neighbourhood Threat: On Tour With Iggy Pop' have been published as French editions, in France and throughout the French speaking world by one of the biggest French publishing companies for rock music and rock music related subjects, Camion Blanc.

If you check out the Camion Blanc website you will discover the new edition covers (now reproduced below - ed) along with publicity blurb, which might be of interest to French/Belgium/Swiss/Quebec Canadian fans of the UK Subs and others with a knowledge of the French language."
