A hilarious, reeling distillation of six decades of musical mythology and history — the world of rock'n'roll re-imagined in peerless prose by a writer who partied with the Stones, took tea with Miles and nearly came to blows with The Clash. Funny, warm, memorable and vivid, with a cast of genuinely unforgettable characters, The Hellhound Sample is rock'n'roll's The Corrections (Fourth Estate, 2009).
