The West Country might not have a place in rock history to match that of London or Liverpool, but some incredible shows took place here, including the UK’s first outdoor pop riots and key performances by many of the greats.
This anecdote-rich book whisks you through 15 eventful years of rock with lost, forgotten and previously untold eye-opening tales from the gigs you’ll wish you’d seen. The stories include walk-on parts for such unlikely figures as Michael Palin and Terry Pratchett.
