Shake, Rattle and Rain

All roads lead to Rome, but in this book they lead to Manchester, specifically its music scene. C P Lee, author of Like the Night: Bob Dylan and the road to the Manchester Free Trade Hall, charts the emergence and development of a phenomenon that has brought the world artists and performers such as 10cc, Inspiral Carpets, John Mayall, New Order, Oasis, Simply Red and The Smiths, to name but a few.
