Oh, Manchester, So Much To Answer For

No, not the nasty Idol-ator (heh heh), but the good Mr. Reynolds. I've still not finished Rip It Up and Start Again (footnotes now available in blog form), just recently bought another copy of The Sex Revolts, the book he co-wrote with his missus (as he calls Joy Press), and consider Generation Ecstasy/Energy Flash (depending upon which side of the Atlantic is your own) one of the greatest books ever written. Ever. Now comes word that he's got a new anthology coming, titled Bring the Noise. Hoo-fucking-ray. Pound for pound, he's one of the best music crits alive.
