From his days as a club face alongside Philip Sallon, Marilyn and
Steve Strange, through the years of global pop superstardom with
Culture Club, his rebirth as a world-class DJ, as a leading light
of musical theatre with the award-winning Taboo, a cutting edge
photographer and a confrontational and acclaimed fashion designer,
one of the many things you can say about George is: he's never
stood still. It's been one hell of a trip. A decade and a half ago,
George was coming to terms with the fall-out from serious drug
addiction, the failure of his relationship with Jon Moss and the
collapse of Culture Club.For lesser men this would have been the
end but for George it became the start of a period of remarkable
reinvention. Told with George's trademark biting wit, brutal
honesty and sparkling insight, this book reveals the whole story,
reappraising his rise to stardom and all the madness that
followed.He talks about his solo singing career, his initiation
into the dance music scene, and his role as the driving force
behind theatrical sensation Taboo.George also discusses the
achievement of the apparently impossible task of reuniting the
famously fractious Culture Club. It is only now, many years on from
the glittering, glossy Eighties, that George makes an insightful
and often hilarious assessment of the impact of that extraordinary
era.
