When Mark Radcliffe was born in the late 1950s, Britain was trying
to find its own version of the dangerously sexy Elvis ... we gave
the world Cliff Richard but by the time Mark was old enough to
recognise pop songs on the radio, the UK was exploding into the
world's most exciting place to be for a young music fan. In this,
his eagerly awaited new book, Mark Radcliffe takes a record from
each year of his life, using the song as a starting point from
which to reach out and pull together a wonderfully entertaining
catalogue of memories and asides about British culture. And, as one
would expect from this unique and popular broadcaster, the tunes he
lists are not the usual suspects. From The Kinks' 'See My Friends',
through Slade's 'Coz I Luv You' to Kraftwerk's 'Europe Endless' and
Joy Division's 'Atmosphere', Mark's selections bring forth a
diverse collision of styles from eras uniquely defined by their
musical genres and fashions. Bringing his choices right up to the
present day, we see the inclusion of artists such as Richard
Hawley, Elbow and Fleet Foxes. Mark's hugely entertaining and
affectionate trawl through his favourite music of the past 50 years
is guaranteed to surprise and delight his many fans.
