I see from W. H. Smith today that Hank is on the front cover and there is an article about his playing style plus an interview with him.

I'm an old man now... but if I had bought this mag in my youth, it would have put me off trying to play like Hank....

All those squiggles, dots and lines...

I just listened to the magic over and over and over...

I had a quick look at the mag before Christmas and the dots and squiggles didn't appear to be anything that Hank had actually played. I've no objection to using notation or tab, though I can see why it's not for everybody, but couldn't see any point in buying it.
