John Spink provides the photographic evidence of a time that made
an enormous impact on all our lives, despite the fact that many
parts were very short lived, as they are in every subsequent youth
culture. These images take us through the period from dippy hippy
drug-induced enlightenment to loads-of-money entitlement, via the
punk revolution and new wave and all the other seminal moments the
TV documentaries would like to tag us with. Those of you who have
picked up this book as a 'historical reference tome' will know that
very few night-out photos of this time exist. John Spink had the
sense to take his camera with him when he went out. So many of us
could have done that but couldn't be arsed. I wasn't a handbag sort
of girl so I had to travel light, fags, money, key, oh the heady
days before a mobile. Nowhere to put a Kodak instamatic 33 in 1974
and my first SLR Practika in 1979 weighed a ton. John however knew
he was experiencing something unique and he set about cataloguing
our formative years.
