The Strange Case of Dr. Terry and Mr. Chimes is an autobiography with a difference. It covers the life of a man who appears to many to be a dual personality. Surely the crazy muso bashing the drums in a succession of punk and heavy metal rock bands couldn’t possibly be the same person as the one offering kind words of wisdom and compassion to the sick? Yet that is the unusual transition made by the author.

The book includes dozens of true stories ranging from wild antics on the road with a touring rock band to the challenges of carving out an entirely new career.
