John Engel was invited to the first-ever TEDx event at the European Parliament in December 2009, to talk about the genesis of Uncommon Sound. You can watch him on Youtube.

Uncommon Sound was cited in a question on JEOPARDY!, the US national TV game show on Thursday Feb.7, 2008.

It went: "The book Uncommon Sound focuses on left-handed players of this instrument, like Elliot Easton".

It was a Double Jeopardy $1,600 question in The Lefty Way category.

In existence since 1964, JEOPARDY! was ranked #2 in the greatest game shows of all time by TV Guide and has won the largest amount of Emmy Awards of any game show ever.

A fine and worthy reference. Thank you, Mr. Trebek!
