John Bindon emerged from a poor, working class London childhood and fraternized with the Krays and the Richardsons, but eventually turned his back on crime to play major parts in films such as Mick Jagger's Performance, The Who's Quadrophenia and Michael Caine's Get Carter. Usually typecast in tough-guy roles, his on-screen persona was chillingly close to the real-life one. Bindon is an incredibly well known figure and has the same legendary status as Lenny "The Guv'nor" Mclean, and this book should have the same popular appeal.
