History Of The Nme (long, Pat), Hardcover

Poised for publication in time for NME´s 60th birthday, this is an insider´s
study of the magazine that the Sex Pistols sang about and that Nick Hornby
claims he regrets not working for, of which former staff have become household
names and whose snotty, confrontational, enthusiastic and sarcastic writing has
become a Wednesday staple for so many music fans over the years. This is the
definitive book about the New Musical Express, from 1952 to last week,
covering the office brawls, the bands (from The Beatles and Blur to The Smiths
and The Fall), the haircuts, the egos and much more!
