Description
Marcus Berkmann was for many years the pop critic of the Spectator, waiting like most freelances to get fired. He''s also the author of the bestselling Berkmann''s Cricket Miscellany, concentrating on the ridiculous true stories and the weird characters of that most eccentric of sports. Here he combines the two, in a wildly entertaining ride through the galloping absurdities of pop, from Elvis Presley''s real hair colour, through Janet Jackson''s more intimate piercings, to Courtney Love''s hatred of cheese. Why does Bono always wear sunglasses? Did Ozzy Osbourne really urinate on the Alamo? What actually happened at Keith Moon''s 21st birthday party at the Holiday Inn in Flint, Michigan? There''s sex, there''s drugs, there''s violence, there''s even a little rock ''n'' roll from time to time. But mainly there are vital questions, now finally answered. Which notable guitarist has unfeasibly tiny hands? Which Britpop star was forced to wear lederhosen as a child? Who said, ''The majority of pop stars are compete idiots in every respect''? And was she wrong?
