Erors in Howard Massey's book.

"The Great British recording studios."
Great Book lots of excellent information but a whole pile of errors.
I wonder who edited this?
No one is listed as editor but it's none the less weak that they made so many mistakes.
For example: Paul Kossoff ex bass player for Free
"Here's a picture of Nellcote Mick Jaggers mansion" [it was a picture of Stargroves and anyway Nellcote was a rental not belonging to Jagger]
The called rock wool Rockwall in a couple of earlier instances before getting it correct later in the book.
There were quite a few others which marred this otherwise excellent read.

That's the kind of thing that should get brought up in the Amazon.com review IMHO. I would guess that the author relies on autocorrect and or their editor isn't from the industry so they wouldn't know any better.

Probably right , These were obvious to me but not to a book editor who isn't a music historian.
