Some Details...
Legendary broadcaster, journalist and musical adventurer Andy Kershaw shares his autobiography No Off Switch at Glee Club Nottingham on Wednesday 21 March.
Andy has much to enthral us with. He was Billy Bragg's roadie one day and presenting The Old Grey Whistle Test and Live Aid the next. As a foreign correspondent he's reported from Iraq, North Korea, Haiti, Angola and Rwanda. While presenting on BBC Radio 1 he shared an office with John Peel and John Walters. Remarkably, his recorded collection weighs seven tons!
"Andy Kershaw has led an extraordinary life. His unrivalled role in bringing World Music to the ears of the west is just part of the story of this man whose zest for life, music, people, experience and travel made him the finest British broadcaster bar none," said Stephen Fry. "Forget Media Studies and a life of student debt: read No Off Switch and learn what it is to be a real broadcast journalist, a real achiever. A real someone."
