Bowie & Hutch is an unusual memoir, Bowie a world superstar and Hutch a comparatively little known, semi-retired jazz guitarist living in rural East Yorkshire.
John ÔHutchÕ Hutchinson was BowieÕs musical collaborator, side-man, accompanying musician and friend, and his story should be an essential read for Bowie fans around the world.
An off and on musical relationship then continued for seven years, from the Marquee Club days to the fall of Ziggy Stardust in 1973.
HutchÕs valuable contributions to DavidÕs music during the early years are amongst the building blocks of David BowieÕs spectacular career.
Looking back with good humour and affection, Hutch is able to give his first-hand account of life on the road with David Bowie. The book also covers Bowie & HutchÕs musical lives in parallel from the beginnings, through the rock and roll years and up to the present day.
John ÔHutchÕ Hutchinson is still playing regular gigs in York, Scarborough and The Yorkshire Wolds area.
