"Heartline: The Authorised Biography of Robin George" signing with Martin Tracey

Heartline: The Authorised Biography of Robin George finally tells the powerful story of one of British rock’s most overlooked yet extraordinary talents. Written with full cooperation from Robin himself until his passing in 2024, this compelling biography by acclaimed music writer Martin Tracey reveals the trials, triumphs, and tenacity of an exceptional guitar prodigy whose promise never faded.
From his 1985 breakthrough hit “Heartline” (Radio One’s Rock Record of the Year) to unforgettable collaborations with legends like Phil Lynott, Robert Plant, Glenn Hughes, Roy Wood, and John Wetton, Robin George effortlessly blended rock and pop. With striking looks and world-class flair as a guitarist, producer, and songwriter, he seemed destined for superstardom. Yet cruel twists of fate - studio thefts, industry collapses, the tragic loss of key collaborators - all conspired to keep true global fame agonisingly just out of reach.
