Colin Copperfield’s It Don’t Mean A Thing if it Ain’t Got that Zing is the funniest, most honest and self-deprecating retelling of a life in showbiz that you’re likely to encounter.
With its extraordinary insights into what those words ‘in showbiz’ really mean, this autobiography fizzes with stories and events that make the reader feel life would be so much more jolly if Colin Copperfield could jump from its pages.
A standout autobiography that deserves pride of place on every good bookshelf, here’s hoping the author has saved some of his hilarious tales for volume two.
Synopsis:
A rollicking tour through the world of showbiz: downing illicit drinks on a film set with the stars, crooning ‘My Way’ for a mobster’s wife, and falling asleep mid-performance on stage in the West End. Col’s stories of his life as an actor and dancer and with the internationally acclaimed band, Wall Street Crash, cartwheel off the page – oozing energy and sheer delightful naughtiness.
Chris Roycroft-Davis – former executive editor, The Sun says:
“Don’t buy this book unless you’re ready for hours of top-of-the-bill entertainment. Colin’s uncensored tsunami of showbiz shenanigans is outrageous, hilarious, and quite unmissable.”
Receiving five-star reviews, Amazon readers say:
“Just read the new book, ‘It Don’t Mean a Thing if it Ain’t got that Zing’ by Colin Copperfield. This is a superb read for a ‘real life’ view of how showbiz professionals go about their work in the many facets of the business. Whilst Wall Street Crash were undoubtedly a talented and eclectic group of individuals, Colin outlines what life was like on the group coming together, gigging on the road, working in TV and recording in their own particular style in the Studio. In addition, Colin recounts his early life, how he was drawn into the performing arts, the people he encountered along the way and many mischievous antics and capers behind the scenes in the course of his career. This is a ‘must read’ book for anyone interested in show business and working in the industry.” – Mr Glenn Nuttall
