Lost in Music by Giles Smith

Lost in Music is about growing up with pop music -- about hearing it, buying it, loving it, and attempting to play it in public for money. A brilliant combination of the confessional and the unapologetic, this is a book for anyone who has ever treasured vinyl, or sung into a roll-on deodorant in front of the bedroom mirror and dreamed of playing Wembley. 'A wonderfully funny pop-music memoir ...You don't have to know who Nik Kershaw is to laugh out loud at the chapter about him' Spectator 'One of the best books about music that you will ever read ...It is impossible to read Lost in Music without laughing out loud' Daily Telegraph
