I saw some terrific news on Facebook this evening from my friend, guitarist, singer, and songwriter Deke Dickerson. He has signed a contract with BMG Books to publish a biography of the legendary Merle Travis.
With the full cooperation of Travis' daughters, Cindy and Merlene, Dickerson has access to an unpublished and unfinished autobiography Travis began, as well as "a storage unit full of Merle's writings, photos, letters, guitars, and reel-to-reel recordings."
If you've read either (or both) of Dickerson's Strat in the Attic books you know his love for guitars, guitarists, and the rich history of the greatest guitar heroes of country, rockabilly, and early rock and roll.
Congratulations to Deke on this exciting project! We can't wait!!
