24 Hour Party People
What seems to be a semi true book about the rise of and fall of Factory Records. Very entertaining and mostly believable. A mad tale of inspired band signings and venue opening brought down by no sense of how to manage the same. In fact the whole point was not to manage through contracts. Seems that all the money that New Order made went on luxuries particularly the doomed Hacienda club. They all (mostly) had a bloody good time doing it all though. Well worth the read.
