Non-Fiction Biography
When 22-year-old accountant Harvey Lisberg heard the
Beatles' 'Please Please Me', he had an epiphany: he could be
Manchester's answer to Brian Epstein. He had a musical ear,
a knack for numbers and a gambler's instinct for taking a
punt. Within a year he had taken local group, Herman's
Hermits, to number one with 'I'm Into Something Good'. Soon,
Hermania was a global phenomenon. Harvey had found his
vocation. In this uproarious, frank and moving
autobiography, he reveals the excesses of life on the road
with Herman's Hermits; the frustration of championing
unknowns Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber; the highs and
lows of managing the brilliant 10cc; the utter madness of
looking after snooker bad boys Alex 'Hurricane' Higgins and
Jimmy 'Whirlwind' White and much, much more. Many other
artists benefitted from Harvey's guidance during this time,
including Tony Christie, Barclay James Harvest, Sad
CafÉ and the Chameleons. I'm Into Something
Good is his account of a life that started in Salford
and ended up in Palm Springs; a life in which he travelled
the world, met heroes and villains, fulfilled his dreams,
and spent a fortune on good living, family and friends.
