A poetic, unique look at Joni through her own words, lyrics, music. Exquisite!

As someone of similar age to the author but living an ocean apart, the only things I knew of the punk movement were from records my older brother played. Therefore, I very much enjoy the way Palmer lays out this discussion and appreciate the education on the factors that contributed to the rise of the punk movement in the UK.
Looking back now, decades later, I recognize many of the names and players in the movement. Over time, I became familiar with many from the post-punk and new-wave movements that followed. All of it I can look back on fondly as I enjoy so many types of music from that time period. I am glad to have the history documented in such a manner.

I’ve always liked Oasis but admit I don’t know a lot about them aside from their most popular songs and a few albums I bought when I was young. With the tour coming up that I excitedly have tickets for I thought it would be good to get some background knowledge and learn more.
This book was really well written and I loved how it was set out with a list at the beginning of all the characters that were involved in the Oasis journey. As the book progressed it was good to read sections from different people and to hear their points of view.
I really enjoyed the book and I definitely learned lots of new facts. The discography and filmography at the back of the books were also great and I am looking forward to the return of Oasis.

With stars such as Marie Lloyd, Harry Lauder and Dan Leno, it reached its glorious, brassy height between 1890… Read more...
