There seems to have been no hiding place from the diligent research by Shaw and Smart, who have chronicled numerous concerts, recording sessions and scenes from Wheeler’s professional and private life. Wheeler was an exemplary illustration of the falseness of that view. As this book records, shyness and lack of self-confidence bedevilled Wheeler throughout his life and the widespread respect and admiration he commanded amongst critics, audiences and fellow musicians seems never to have really reassured him.
