Description
AN UNCUT BOOK OF THE YEAR'A wild rock 'n' roll fairground ride of the damned.' OBSERVER'Excellent.'NEW STATESMAN'Entertaining . . . recalls twenty heady years at the centre of the British music business.'FINANCIAL TIMESA candid frontline account of an illustrious gonzo career as an independent music publicistduring the post-punk heyday of the 80s and 90s, featuring an introduction by Bill Drummond and a new foreword by Julian Cope. Mick Houghton worked with some of the greatest, most influential and downright dysfunctional cult groups of the post-punk era and beyond - Ramones, Talking Heads, The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Undertones, Felt and Sonic Youth among them. But the three acts Mick is most closely identified with are Echo & the Bunnymen, Julian Cope, and the KLF.
As confidant and co-conspirator, he navigated the minefield of rivalries and contrasting fortunes which make Fried & Justified such a candid, amusing and insightful picture of an exciting and inspirational period for music.
