Belated release for I Used To Say My Mother Was Shirley Bassey

Stephen K Amos has recorded an audiobook version of his memoirs – eight years after it was first published.

The comic narrated his 2012 title, I Used To Say My Mother Was Shirley Bassey, after signing a deal with  Audible.

His talk-show podcast is already available on the audio platform, and his autobiography will be available from April 30, here, priced £14.99 for non-subscribers.

 Amos said he was ‘absolutely delighted to have my dulcet tones reading out loud, my very own words, from my very own audio book.  I want you to laugh, shout and be moved as we go through my book together.’

I Used to Say My Mother Was Shirley Bassey explores the comic’s chaotic upbringing in a large Nigerian family in South London, where he was the only black kid in his class.
