Written in his own unmistakable voice, this is the frank and fascinating memoir by arguably the greatest bass player of his generation. Beginning with an East End childhood in a London barely recovered from the War, Jah Wobble takes us on a journey through the beginnings of punk and post-punk as a founding member of Public Image Limited, an illustrious forty-year solo career which has seen collaborations with musical greats such as U2, Brian Eno and CAN through to the present day still playing to sold-out audiences.
Along the way we hear how Wobble navigated chronic alcoholism and other personal issues to emerge as an alternative national treasure.
