The Island Book of Records Volume III

'These books are magnificent, a sumptuous treasure trove of photo outtakes, press cuttings, concert bills and the fond memories of those involved with each album that ferries you back to the sunlit uplands of a glorious age. Every page has the whiff of patchouli and Golden Virginia!'
Mark Ellen, co-host of Word In Your Ear podcast

'Neil Storey has pulled another fabulous volume out of the hat which like its predecessors effectively redefines what constitutes the definitive record label history in book form. At its simplest the sumptuous and weighty Island Book Of Records series exist in a class of their own.'
Grahame Bent, Shindig! Magazine

'Purchasers of the first two large-format hardbacks will need this on their bookshelf; for many more, this will be an indispensable series that will be referred to frequently. A desert island volume, to be sure.'
Michael Heatley, Record Collector

'Often offering more detail than a dedicated biography might cover, and the result is a book that, while it'll satisfy the most demanding aficionado, never gets lost in the weeds.'
Steve O'Brien, Classic Pop

'Neil Storey is truly doing God’s work here. The depth and detail – both visual and written – in which these volumes tell the Island story is the stuff of every record collector's dreams. I open these books and I’m quite simply lost in the purest joy.'
Pete Paphides, journalist and author of Broken Greek

'An illustrated oral history of just about everything that went on to make the label what it was and became. Mammoth in the depth of research that goes into documenting every release on the label and its associates, albums and singles, no matter how seemingly insignificant, and mammoth also in its sheer physical proportions.'
