Going Deaf for a Living

Book excerpt: Steve Lamacq marks forty years of fandom, and more than twenty-five years of the Radio 1 award-winning music show, the Evening Session with the re-release of Going Deaf For A Living, twenty years after its original publication date. Now updated with an introduction and an additional chapter, bringing the book up to date, this is the title for anyone who has ever had even a passing obsession with 1990s pop, an overview of the era that saw the rebirth of British music.
