Cacophony of Stardust

This collection, laid down from many of the writer's experiences, stretches back through several decades.

He has also run a Sci-Fi group and edited it's magazine. Al Barz has performed many poems, often with his keyboard or self-composed backing tracks, at many venues across the West Midlands and beyond. He has headlined at various gigs, won a poetry slam, been part of a singing duo and a poetry quartet, organised large and small music and poetry events, and acted on over a dozen stages across the country as well as a film and a TV ad.
