In October 1976, the London restaurant world was turned upside down when Michael Caine, celebrated chef Richard Shepherd and Irish entrepreneur Peter Langan opened Langan’s, a celebrity hangout that would revolutionise the capital’s dining scene.

Inheriting its status from Mr. Chow and St. Lorenzo, Langan’s was soon joined by Joe Allen, Le Caprice and L’Escargot, making London the most vibrant restaurant capital of the age. London never looked back. Written with Dylan Jones’s trademark glamour and wit, ‘Table Hopping’ reveals all you need to know about the fine dining world of one of the greatest cities in the world.

Eric Barrett was there when Hendrix set Woodstock ablaze, when paranoia crackled through Toronto Airport, when his music electrified a sea of 600,000 at the 1970 Isle of Wight Festival, and in the quiet hours backstage when he revealed the insecurities behind his genius. Hendrix confided in few people. Barrett was one of them. ‘Experienced’ is Barrett’s unflinching memoir: the definitive inside account of Hendrix as friend, bandleader, and phenomenon. It strips away the mythology to reveal the man in all his brilliance and contradiction – volatile, generous, insecure, incandescently creative, and always in pursuit of the next sound. His final years were tested and defined on British soil. Taking readers into performances that veered between transcendence and chaos, Barrett captures a Hendrix rarely seen, nervous before British crowds and afraid that the country that had once embraced him might be moving on.
