I pre-ordered Volume 5 because a good friend (and my favourite artist) is one of the artists in the book, and her chapter also includes my photography. Then I also find out this volume includes another friend and several other artists that I really admire. So, buying this book was a no-brainer, it was always going to happen. The pre-order is duly delivered in quick time, and it was very well packed and protected against the Australian weather and postal service. Straight away, I read the chapters on my friends, and I was super-impressed with the quality, the writing style, and the overall production. I expected the book to be good, but I really didn't expect it to be this damn good! It is wonderful! I immediately decided I want (no, I need) the complete set! So, I've gone straight back into Pauline's online store and ordered Volumes 1-4. These books will be an important reference guide and valued accompaniment to my music collection.

Very prompt and professional service.

An excellent read and reference guide. I see Pauline is seeking submissions for a second one. Aussie blues artists would be mad not to get on board.

Excellent snapshot of the contemporary blues scene in Australia. A great read

Pre-ordering was simple & very efficient.

I Always have friendly and prompt service from Pauline. I love her Blues Portrait books.

No issues whatsoever!

I have the first 5 volumes, great books, well written and given me an insight into the great musicians that are in Australia. I live in Perth so weren't aware of a lot of the musicians but has inspired me to delve a bit deeper and buy some of their music that is available. Looking forward to volume 6.

Very professional service, much appreciated.

A pretty comprehensive encyclopedia of the bands that I grew up with and new ones I continue to enjoy. Can't wait to get my eyeballs engaged with this edition - a great series!

My previous experiences have been fantastic in every respect (customer service, timeliness, communication, value for money, quality product). This latest transaction is a pre-order, hence I won't receive the new book for a while yet. However, I have every expectation that it will be awesome like the previous editions.

Easy to pre order Volume 6 and look forward to picking up as arranged.

Have all five books excellent reading. Having suggested an entry into number six look forward to introducing it to my local blues club

Enjoyed!
