 Late that same year, it was published by Brian & O'Keefe in Britain, where it received an unfavourable review in the "Times" newspaper.In "Let It Rock" magazine, Phil Hardy wrote that the authors had failed to assemble a convincing or informative narrative and had instead resorted to portraying Epstein as their "hero", at the obvious expense of Klein and the Eastman family.Hardy concluded that the book was "a failure", although he acknowledged that "if only because it sees beyond the stars in most people's skies, with [Michael Wale's] "Vox Pop", another flawed book, it marks a hopeful new starting point for rock writing."
