It's the discography that tells you what you need to know. With a cast of characters that includes Robert Wyatt, Ivor Cutler, Pere Ubu, Sun Ra, and Pink Fairies - this is a history of rock music that fillets out the popular, the trend-setting, the champagne glasses at No.10. This is the story of maximum rock 'n' roll told through the deviants, misfits and weirdos that turned Luke Haines into a musician that churns out albums about miniature rural towns mutated by toxic glue. It's very good - and if you've read his other books, you'll already know that.
These are SIGNED copies too - touched by the deviant hand of Haines - hurrah!
