Review
"'The vast majority of the singles and artists in this book were brave enough to break out of cool's stultifying grip, and reshape style, language and/or performance in their image.' Garry Mulholland"
Product Description
In what amounts to a history of the last twenty-five years of popular music, respected music journalist Garry Mulholland has compiled a list of the 500 greatest singles since The Sex Pistols' seminal "Anarchy in the UK". In incisive, outspoken and informative essays, Mulholland challenges the accepted standpoint of music journalism to produce an entertaining, nostalgic and provocative read. Incidentally, the title comes from a 1977 entry in the book by the Rezillos.
