Why read it?
1 author picked Head-On as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Julian Cope writes like a fan. He doesn’t write like a musician or a music journalist. That’s why I like his books so much.
I find his views refreshing on everything from glam rock to living in Liverpool in the late 1970s. He may be best known for his music with The Teardrop Explodes and as a solo artist, but he doesn’t serve up a boring discography or describe what life was like on the road. He lets you into his head, and best of all, he doesn’t follow any party line.
