Our Joe by Eddie Rowley

Read the story of Joe through his own interviews and the memories and anecdotes of his family, including his brother Ben who was by his side in showbusiness for over forty years; his band members, including his nephews Adrian and Ray; his showbiz pals, Larry Gogan, Finbar Furey, Brendan Bowyer and Paddy Cole; his fans, friends (including Michael O’Leary of Ryanair) and acquaintances from all walks of life. Jam-packed with a treasure trove of never-before-told stories that vividly bring to life the essence of Joe Dolan: the showbiz legend, the family man, the friend, the joker and the devil-may-care character who never forgot his roots or lost touch with his people despite enjoying fame and wealth beyond his dreams.
