Writer, critic and broadcaster Paul Morley grew up in Stockport. He was a founding member of the electronic ensemble Art of Noise, collaborated with Grace Jones on her best-selling memoirs and was an artistic advisor for the David Bowie Is exhibition at the V & A. He is the author of a number of books on music as well as two acclaimed memoirs, Nothing and The North.
An alternately funny and moving book about the most important art form on Planet Earth. Destined to become a classic (pun intended) -- Jarvis Cocker An exhilarating shredding of received wisdom, provocatively casting pop music on the side of the stagnant and conservative – a bit last century – while stressing classical music’s dynamic revolutionary potential … Morley remains a brilliant conductor – of music, of ideas, of inexplicable flashes of lightning. He knows the score -- Victoria Segal * Sunday Times * In this boundary-pushing book, the music journalist charts his increasing immersion in classical music – not as a lurch towards “maturity”, but a recognition of its revolutions and revelations -- Best Music Books of the Year * Sunday Times * His passion for centuries of music – both celebrated and obscure – is infectious * Irish Independent *
