The purpose of this site is to keep everybody up to date with the books and projects that I'm working on right now, and to provide a running tally of all the music (and otherwise) books I've published over the past 25 years. All hundred-and-something-teen of them.
It's all very basic right now, but I have included a full bibliography, plus links to a few recent reviews. And click here for details of all my non rock'n'roll related writing.
This is also the place to visit if you're looking for copies of those rare and out of print titles, as well as a new series of Internet exclusives. The first batch of books, TV Smith, Otway-Barrett, Suede, Footnotes from the Archives of Oblivion, Space Daze and Fierce Fiction (a non-musical title), is already available from Amazon.com, or direct from the links on this site - just click on the illustrations above.
The next go-round will likely include two long-awaited and oft-requested reprints: THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION and GROWING UP WITH JOHN'S CHILDREN, together with the brand-new ARMCHAIR GUIDE TO 10CC, the THOSE WE HAVE LOVED soccer trilogy and a series of collected articles and reviews, dating back to the late 1970s.
