Overview

Jon Savage's 1991 book England's Dreaming: Anarchy, Sex Pistols, Punk Rock, and Beyond was hailed by the New York Times Book Review as "the definitive history of the English punk movement." Widely imitated but never equaled, it remains that rare work of music history that appeals to music fans, critics, and scholars alike. In researching England's Dreaming, Savage conducted hundreds of hours of interviews, of which only a fraction were published in the final book. Now, in The England's Dreaming Tapes, Savage makes available for the first time the full, uncut, sensational story behind the cultural moment that was punk.

Overview

Jon Savage's 1991 book England's Dreaming: Anarchy, Sex Pistols, Punk Rock, and Beyond was hailed by the New York Times Book Review as "the definitive history of the English punk movement." Widely imitated but never equaled, it remains that rare work of music history that appeals to music fans, critics, and scholars alike. In researching England's Dreaming, Savage conducted hundreds of hours of interviews, of which only a fraction were published in the final book. Now, in The England's Dreaming Tapes, Savage makes available for the first time the full, uncut, sensational story behind the cultural moment that was punk.

Here is the story of a generation that changed the world in just a few months in 1976, as told by the scene's major figures: all four original Sex Pistols as well as Joe Strummer, Chrissie Hynde, Jordan, Siouxise Sioux, Viv Albertine, Adam Ant, Leee black Childers, Howard Devoto, Pete Shelley, Sylvain Sylvain, Debbie Wilson, Tony Wilson, Jah Wobble, and many others. Together, they offer a sweeping history of the late 1960s and the 1970s-not just the era's music but also its radical politics, social issues, fashion, and culture.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
The 1991 publication of Savage's England's Dreaming was a coming-of-age moment in the study of punk, and it remains one of the most respected histories of the genre. Here, Savage presents the transcripts of his research interviews with the artists, managers, designers, and fans who witnessed the birth of the London scene—in a format as raw and uncompromising as the times they describe. He provides little bibliographic support beyond a short introductory paragraph to each interview and an index and makes no attempt to explain his subjects' more obtuse references. Even hard-core fans may find themselves struggling to recall the significance of every event or personality named. Still, the wealth of firsthand information makes this a valuable resource.Verdict A richly rewarding if disorganized book with much to offer scholars and scenesters. Highly recommended for academic collections. Readers requiring a more accessible overview of punk's roots would be better served by Clinton Heylin's Babylon's Burning or, of course, Savage's original England's Dreaming.
