A week ago I started shipping my All Platinum book “All Platinum - The Making of a Sound”.

After one week I have seen sales of approx 35% of the print run (there will not be a re-print by the way). I am delighted with the level of response so far. I am also delighted with the feedback received. So a big thank you to everyone for their support and kind words.

Although I will happily sell individual copies worldwide, I also realise that the cost of shipping such a big book overseas are not cheap and I am currently talking with potential distributors in Europe, Japan and the USA. Nothing concrete yet on that front and if anything gets sorted, I’ll update everyone.

UK copies are £45 + £5.50 P&P for a total of £50.50. Paypal to allplatinumbook@gmail.com. That is also the email address for wholesale enquiries.

Mine arrived Saturday while I was out.

Wife's hidden it away for Christmas and no amount of pleading will change her mind. 

Will be able to give feedback end of December.

Good news for North American Soul Sourcers who are interested in a copy.....

Dusty Groove should have some copies of this book in next week. Postage will obviously be a lot cheaper than shipping from the UK..

That's a very fine retailer that I've used over many years. Very competitive prices, great selection that is constantly updated, good service ... they deserve every success. They typically stock relevant books, and I reckon they are among the best outlets for any book of this kind in the US. Nice one, Steve. :thumbup:

Just an update, 

Well over half of the books have now been sold. Since writing, I've also learnt more from some of the original artists and their relatives - always the way.

Anyway, copies are still available from allplatinumbook@gmail.com or the following UK stockists:

Beatin’ Rhythm Records

John Manship Records

A Nickel & A Nail 

Vinyl2Books

Hi Steve

I'm still catching up on different stuff on SS. I've just seen this thread.

Many congratulations on completing the book and the success in having it printed and distributed. I'll have a proper look later. 

Finally; I hope you're well Steve.

Hey Steve!

Your book is amazing and I find it hard to put down. A labour of love for sure.

Thanks so much.
