| | Joe Boyd: Interview - Features - Music - Time Out London |
 | | Boyd appears across the pages of ‘White Bicycles’ as a Zelig-like figure, popping up alongside legend after legend: Muddy Waters, Roland Kirk, Eric Clapton, Duke Ellington, Nico, and – most unlikely of all – the pre-Abba Benny, Björn, Agnetha and Frida, with whom he spent an evening wassailing in Sweden. |
 | | Although Boyd managed to balance the demands of music and the bottom line, he says he wasn’t nearly as tough or shrewd as the true players of the era. |
 | | Boyd explains that in his increasingly desperate search for a title, he recalled that in the book he identifies the moment when UFO faves Tomorrow performed their Brit-psych classic ‘My White Bicycle’ as the absolute zenith of the ’60s, the peak before the crash into disillusion and disintegration. |
