M3 guitarist Micky Moody (ex-WHITESNAKE) has just had his book, "Playing with Trumpets - A Rock and Roll Apprenticeship", released by SAF Publishing.

The book's description reads as follows: "In 1981, whilst onstage with hard rockers WHITESNAKE at the Monsters of Rock Festival at Donington Park, in a rare moment of self-analysis as he raised a clenched fist in salute to 65,000 faithful fans, Micky Moody pondered the question, 'How the hell did I get here?' This is that story..."
