Forget Punk. That Was Amateur Hour

1977. Lou Reed exists on a steady diet of whisky and speed. His fractious relationship is going off the rails. His studio is filled with eerie heads. And he is rising, heroically, to the challenge of showing rock’s young rebels the true meaning of debauchery. Damien Love uncovers the harrowing tale of an “offensive” masterpiece, Street Hassle.

The Konrads, The King Bees, The Manish Boys. The Lower Third, The Buzz. The Riot Squad and The Hype. A baseball team called the Dulwich Bluejays, and a mime about the Chinese invasion of Tibet. Fifty years on from the release of David Bowie’s debut album, Michael Bonner takes a very close look at Bowie’s quietly momentous 1960s, and learns from many friends, lovers and accomplices how David Jones became Rainbowman, and invented the majestic creature mythologised as David Bowie. As his former girlfriend says, “Everything David did in the ’60s led up to the ’70s…”
