Steve Diggle: Autonomy, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Funny, honest and touchingly philosophical; the autobiography of the Buzzcocks' Steve Diggle.

From bass player to lead guitarist, member, Steve Diggle has been the
driving force keeping Buzzcocks alive since he first met Pete Shelley
in 1976. Together they would ignite the Manchester music scene,
kickstart indie and become one of the best loved and most influential
punk groups of all time.

Following Shelley's untimely death in 2018, Autonomy is Diggle's
definitive inside account of their shared musical legacy and complex
friendship through the band's rise, fall, and rise again - from their
punk origins supporting Sex Pistols with original singer Howard
Devoto to Top of the Pops, the excess of success, break-up,
reformation and life beyond bereavement.

Funny, honest and touchingly philosophical, it is also Diggle's very
personal story of working class escape, dreams, redemption and loss

• an ultimately heroic survivor's tale from an irrepressible rock'n'roll
  spirit.
