Product Description

One time manager of the Yardbirds and Marc Bolan, Simon Napier-Bell recollects the 1960s in all its excess and flamboyance. There are frank and scurrilous tales of sex, drugs, and famous stars, encompassing people such as Keith Moon and Brian Epstein, manager of The Beatles.


From the Publisher

'A scurrilous memoir of the Sixties' music business - any aspiring star should read it.' Daily Mirror --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rivetting postcards from 1960s London, 28 Oct 2001
By T. ROBINSON (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
...I laughed like a drain when I first read this book in 1983 and bought it again instantly when it was republished recently. Not only was it just as funny second time around, but (joy oh joy) there were extra stories and details in the new edition which the original publisher had apparently censored. This is an insider's first hand account of the 1960s music business in London, and as a fan of the music of that era I still find the book rivetting. There's so much crap and pomposity and myths that have grown up concerning that time and place, this is a refreshing dose of down to earth dirt-dishing. Sorry to rant on like this, but I've worked in the UK music biz and this is one of my favourite books about the subject, ever.

4.0 out of 5 stars 20th Century Boy does good!, 13 Jun 2001
As an avid enthusiast for all things from the swinging sixties, Simon Napier-Bell's hilarious romp through the pleasures and pit falls of pop, provides a valuable insight into that colourful decade. The tales he tells are excellent and the underlying truths about the music biz in the sixties are a revelation. Covering the period from Simon's entry into the music business up to his retirement after years of managing such illuminaries as The Yardbirds, Marc Bolan and John's Children, the various tales of debauchery, mayhem and chaos ensue. Fantastic fun for all fans of sixties music and beyond.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dated, dull and poorly written, 28 Aug 2001
By A Customer
What a disappointment! It tries to "shock" - maybe it would have done twenty years ago but things have moved on. It is poorly written feeling very much like a "cobbled together" series of reminiscences (some of which were barely credible) with sweeping generalities about the "music business" - particularly about the executives of record companies and littered with name-drops that highlight how little he actually seemed to have achieved - if he'd had a few hit records besides "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" and the Yardbirds why not tell us what they were? (The cover blurb refers to Wham! but the book is only about the sixties and so doesn't get that far.) I was also insulted that this was a reprinted edition with new material and yet was riddled with typos - shows how little respect for the reader the whole book displayed - this slim volume was certainly not worth the (inflated) cover price.
