Crossroads

Rezensionen / Stimmen

A deep love of music and its legends, a warm wit and a hawkish eye for the absurd. I feel educated but I'm crying laughing. This is a great book -- GUY GARVEY Mark Radcliffe is like our shared friend. We feel we know him from being our late night, early morning or afternoon companion for many years. His voice is always a comfort and his music knowledge rivals that of anyone I know. His writing is like his broadcasting - light and funny when needed but it is beautifully emotional like the man himself. Long may Mark and his stories be part of our lives -- TIM BURGESS Written in the warm, engaging voice that's happily become a constant presence in the soundtrack of popular music -- SIMON ARMITAGE That warmth, that authenticity, those stories . . . Masterfully told -- ANNIE NIGHTINGALE An excellent read - engagingly witty -- BERNARD SUMNER Praise for Mark Radcliffe: Steal this book! -- DAVID BOWIE on Thank You for the Days If I wanted to study the history of modern music, I'd have Mark Radcliffe as my professor -- BRIAN ENO on Reelin' in the Years A love letter to pop music. Mark Radcliffe is the sharpest DJ that Radio One has ever had by some considerable distance * * Sunday Times * * Always a refreshing breath of down-to-earth amiability on the airwaves, DJ Mark Radcliffe brings the same chatty, Northern tone to this memoir * * Herald * * A pleasant ramble through five decades of pop culture seen through the eyes of a music-loving northerner . . . Radcliffe writes in much the same way that he talks - warmly and wryly * * Independent * *
