Something Beginning With O
Anybody read this?
Something Beginning With O
In May 1993 Heavenly Records published Pearce's book, Something Beginning With O. It was a deliberately short work that examined pop mythography. The book , an "intensely subjective description of obsessives, outsiders, risk takers, explorers" linked the 1960s mod movement with the 1970s punk rock explosion, and focused on three significant figures. These three figures were Paul Weller, Kevin Rowland, and Vic Godard. The book was enthusiastically reviewed, and quickly sold out of its first print run. It is now a much sought-after item, and continues to be referred to in other music related books, including Rip It Up And Start Again by Simon Reynolds.

You better hang on to it - I heard it is as rare as hen's teeth these days!
If you feel like scanning in a few choice pages that would be interesting...
