A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Charlie Harper is one of the most respected and loved musicians to have come out of the 1977 punk explosion. Prior to forming the U.K. Subs in that seminal year, Charlie had busked around Europe in the sixties and played in numerous bands through the seventies. However, he eventually found fame with the Subs, building up a formidable, devoted fan following through his unrelenting love of gigging. Briefly hitting the charts and playing Top of the Pops multiple times, his indefatigable belief in punk as being the people's music has seen the U.K. Subs carry on to the present day. Many now refer to Charlie as 'The Godfather of Punk', a fitting moniker to one of the most likeable personalities who has stayed true to that DIY punk ethic. His fascinating story is told in 'An Anarchy of Demons', in his own words, including his early years at boarding schools for misfit boys, his adventurous youth, his struggles and escapades as a bass player, his turbulent personal life, as well as his incredible journey with the U.K. Subs, as a solo artist and with his many side-project bands. This eye-opening account, packed with unseen images from Charlie's archive, gives you a perfect insight into what made him into the punk icon he is today. Charlie keeps on rocking, touring and creating. Ably supported and abetted by his wife Yuko, he never intends to let the punk-rock flame fade.They live in Seaford in the South East of England, but may well turn up at a gig near you soon!
