In 1982, aged twenty-three, Simon Parkes paid GBP1 for a virtually
derelict building in Brixton. Over the next fifteen years he turned
it into Britain's most iconic music venue. And now he's telling his
story: full of fond - and wild - reminiscences of the famous
musicians who played at the venue, including Robert Plant and Jimmy
Page, Lou Reed, The Ramones, New Order, the Beastie Boys and The
Smiths. This is about one man's burning desire for success against
the odds, his passion for live music and the excitement of those
wilderness years, a far cry from the corporate world that controls
the scene today. From rock-star debauchery and mixing it up with
Brixton gangsters to putting on the first legal raves in the UK and
countless backroom business deals, this is the story of how to
succeed in business with no experience and fulfil your teenage
fantasies.
