Described as the Irish John Peel, Dave Fanning has been a major
player in the Irish and global music scene for over 30 years. In
this compelling memoir, RTE Radio 2 DJ Dave Fanning will give the
behind-the-scenes story of all the international musicians he has
met, including The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, David Bowie, The
Who and many, many more. Dave's story starts in the 60s, when he
discovered his love for Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen and
of course, The Beatles through the family subscription to the NME.
This was to be his first glimpse of a world he would soon become an
important part of. Graduating from pirate radio and a stint as
Editor of Scene magazine, Dave joined RTE radio 2 when it launched
in 1973, and quickly became the voice of a generation. Billboard
magazine hailed him as the man solely responsible for the growth of
Ireland's music industry. Renowned for supporting young, new Irish
talent, Dave Fanning will detail the unique story of his role in
the launch of U2 and his ongoing friendship with the band, delving
into their humble beginnings and rise to fame. Including
never-before-seen photographs and images from Dave's huge personal
collection, this is an absolute must-have for any music fan and
will be a significant contribution to the history of music.
