Walls Come Tumbling Down: The Music and Politics of Rock Against Racism, 2 Tone and Red Wedge
Walls Come Tumbling Down: The Music and Politics of Rock Against Racism, 2 Tone and Red Wedge
History of what it says on the tin by only using quotes from the people involved so no surrounding narrative although that's not really needed given the quotes used. Very interesting but probably of most interest to those of us who lived through those times and can relate to the prevailing society and the bands and their place in changing (did they?) that society. I picked it up on the off chance whilst visiting the Penderyn distillery in Wales and have taken years to read it as was at work to read in my lunch break and since Covid times now dipped into at home. Finally finished but as not a story as such and I know the background easy to dip in and out of.
