The Sensational Alex Harvey

On arriving in the deep south of the U.S., Harvey announced to black state-troopers that he would perform blacked-up as Al Jolson "in the interests of racial harmony." The Sensational Alex Harvey Band thrived on such confrontation, they could be both rock band and vaudeville troupe, whether interpreting Jacques Brel or performing Tom Jones "Delilah" oozing with intrigue and sexuality. Published to coincide with the 20th anniversary of Harvey’s death, this is the poignant story of Scotland’s finest rock entertainer.
