Before We Was We by Mike Barson

Before We Was We by Mike Barson

The first official book by Madness. In Before We Was We Madness tell us how they became them. A story of seven originals, whose collective graft, energy and talent took them from the sweaty depths of the Hope and Anchor's basement to the Top of the Pops studio. In their own words they each look back on shared adventures. Playing music together, riding freight trains, spraying graffiti and stealing records. Walking in one another's footsteps by day and rising up through the city's exploding pub music scene by night. Before We Was We is irreverent, funny and full of character. Just like them.

A rollicking oral history of Madness’s early years.. a goldmine of quirky anecdotes * Q Magazine *
[One of] the best books to buy music fans for Christmas * The Telegraph *
Brilliantly assembled by journalist Tom Doyle as an oral history featuring the voices of all the members … tells you more about how a band becomes a band than any number of anecdotes about life in the studio * Financial Times *
As much as anything, the book is a social history of growing up on the edges of criminality * Financial Times *
An amazing book … one of the best books about a band I have ever read. I've been raving about it to everyone I meet
