Well, I would buy it! A top-class pianist, both as a soloist and an accompanist, who knows every (good) tune ever written, it was always a pleasure and a privilege to play alongside Bill. Not least because he is also a very funny man! Publish and be damned, man!
I too would buy a copy!
Bill, if you're reading this, check out print-on-demand platforms like Unbound. May be a risk free way of getting your work published in virtual and print formats
How can I get a copy Bill.....even for money?!
