Stuart Bailie is an NME veteran, a music journalist and author from Belfast. He has rolled with Tom Waits and Shane MacGowan. He has encountered Nina Simone, Björk, Sinéad O’Connor and Dave Grohl. This is his collection of stories and original articles: 40 years of insights and shenanigans, a record of fast times in popular culture.
He charts the rise of Radiohead and messy times with Oasis. There is road fever with Primal Scream and U2. The Manic Street Preachers suffer pain and achieve transcendence. Stuart documents a passing era of access and friction, critique and acclaim. The Song is Nearly Over is a requiem and an action replay.
