Words and Music: A History of Pop in the Shape of a City - Paul Morley

I tried, I really did. I even dipped in and out of some of the later chapters to try and find some narrative hook. But I failed. The book just came across as self-indulgent, pub punditry fuelled by far too many pints.

I'll leave it to Phil to read, it's his holiday reading after all!
