Shots from the Hip

En savoir plus sur le livre

A collection from one of pop music's writers, which forms a compendium of frontline despatches. The book is divided into several sections - the early 1970s (the hippy hangover and the glamorous tendency), the middle 1970s (the end of civilisation as we know it) and the late 1970s onwards (after the end). Pieces include the world's rudest interview with Paul McCartney, proto punk and Manhattan wierdos (ie the Ramones), punk rock, soul power, the Rolling Stones, Murray's memorial of Jimi Hendrix and the death of Presley.
