No. What a particular book.

Predictive typing is a bastard.

Anyway, I want it.

I don't whether you meant me with the predictive typing thing but I meant it. It seems very particular. 3 years. Mind you, it is also very far reaching in that it covers many types of music in that period. Except disco which personally was a big deal for me.

Ah, my mistake. Apologies.

I'd like the book, though. It focuses essentially on the punk movement from the period I think. I had a look at the Jon Savage/Punk 45 book but this looks a more extensive piece of work.

I have both a hardcover and soft cover version of this and have still never read either. Mind you, there are many classic books on my shelves that I haven't read.

Looks like my kind of read, too.

However, 3,000 singles doesn't seem such a great deal when you consider that twice that many are/were released in the UK every year.

Still, as has been stated, it's quite 'particular'.

Having never heard of the author Mario Panciera, or his band Devil Doll, he seems quite a particular chap.
