This Deep Dive Review provides a biographical sketch of Buck Holder, a deceitful and manipulative figure who operated Onest Records in the early 1970s. The narrative details how Holder deliberately structured his business to avoid commercial hits, allowing him to embezzle funds through complex international licensing schemes and falsified manufacturing invoices. Beyond his financial crimes, the memoir describes Holder as a narcissistic fantasist who exploited artists and employees alike while boasting of fabricated professional achievements. His career is characterised by a series of elaborate scams, ranging from money laundering with overseas royalties to the eventual collapse of a multi-million-pound deal with a German label. Ultimately, the source portrays a man whose only genuine talent was an unwavering expertise in embezzlement and self-enrichment at the expense of the music industry. Underneath his authoritative persona lay a profound lack of musical understanding, resulting in a legacy defined by fraud rather than artistic merit.

Step into the control room with Kenny Denton. His Kenny Denton's "There Ain't No Rules In Rock n Roll" Stories From My 45 Years in The Music Industry is a raw, firsthand account from behind the mixing desk, starting in 1969 at the legendary Pye Studios.

You'll hear the chaos, the creative breakthroughs, the hilarious missteps, and the quiet moments that define a life dedicated to sound.
