A SPORTING PORTRAIT OF DIXIE DEAN MS.MP3.CD.663 234 mins
This 50-track CD plays only on MP3 compatible CD/ DVD/ PC players. Celebrated TV Pundit, Journalist and Biographer JOHN KEITH tells the complete warts-and-all story of perhaps the greatest sportsman of all time. (Did you know that Dixie was a scratch golfer, a sprint champion and also played baseball for England?) John recorded many interviews and Dean's great good humour and down-to-earth recollections surprise and amuse. In the 1927/28 season, he scored 100 times - bagging 60 league goals for Everton F.C. What the blazes would he be worth today?
Including comments from his team mates and present-day players, this is spell-binding insight into the world of professional football in the Twenties and Thirties. His exploits, on and off the field, made the humble Birkenhead-born William Ralph Dean a world-wide celebrity who will never be forgotten. (He stopped the England team giving a Nazi salute in Germany! He also headed in a goal whilst he had a metal plate in his head covering a fracture of the skull!)
This amazing man laid the basis for today's Goodison dynasty. The CD features the contemporary music of the era throughout. Dixie Dean's story has never before been made available anywhere else in the world - this is the only one. It's a masterpiece.
