Fantastic ... will make a great stocking filler
* Sunday World's Eddie Rowley and Marc Roberts on Galway Bay FM *Time is running out ... get it while you can
* Sunday World, Fr Brian D'Arcy *The new book by Paddy Cole is a welcome addition to the list of memoirs from those who created a unique contribution to Ireland's musical history. Paddy has seen it all; from his days as a child prodigy playing in Castleblayney with his dad and Maurice Lynch, to the Capitol showband, the Big 8 and his own trad band, Paddy has starred in and survived every twist and turn in a notoriously fickle business ... All the great stories are here ... It's a superb read and a sure-fire hit for the Christmas stocking ... Get it while you can ... Paddy Cole's memoir is excellent
* Sunday World, Fr Brian D'Arcy *As heart-warming as it is hilarious
* Ireland's Own, Michael Lyster *Fascinating and brilliant stories
* Virgin TV's 6 O'Clock Show *His book is a real page turner, full of delightful memories from the early showband years to more recent times, and sprinkled with Paddy's natural and infectious style of storytelling
* Irish Farmers Journal *Most enjoyable
* Dublin Gazette *The book is absolutely fantastic ... a wonderful book ... a great Christmas present
* RTE Radio's Countrywide *It's brilliant
* Newstalk's Pat Kenny Show *Excellent book
