Our Generation! 1976 - 1985 by Tony Beesley
For the first time - the real story behind Punk Rock in the North of England!
Fascinating reading and a right trip down memory lane (Jo Callis -The Rezillos)
Beesley's enthusiasm is infectious (Rachael Clegg - Sheffield Telegraph)
A true Punk Rock book: honest, vibrant and passionate. Highly recommended. My book of the year so far (Phil Singleton - God save the Sex Pistols website)
A real labour of love. I like the fact that people get to speak who maybe wern't in bands or were but their bands never made it, and also how the music and attitude informed their lives (Richard Chatterton - Rotherham Punk Rocker)
It pulls you in from the first paragraph. I can't recommended this book enough (Sally Burton - South Yorkshire Times)
This is the unique and very first account of the Punk generation of Sheffield and its local region told by over 150 different and varied voices of the era. From the pre-Punk days all the way through Punk's summer of hate - 1977 and beyond, the story takes in the many classic gigs, the clothes worn and searches for identity, the groups formed and broken, the fans, the records, the violence and laughs along with many exclusive photos, flyers, tickets and memorabilia. It is a story of euphoric excitement and life changing experiences told from a time when being young and different was often a dangerous past time.
