About this listen

Suggs is one of pop music's most enduring and likeable figures. Read by the author himself with the assured style and wit of a natural raconteur, this hugely entertaining and insightful autobiography takes you from his colourful early life on a North London council estate, through the heady early days of Punk and 2-Tone, to the eighties, where Madness became the biggest selling singles band of the decade.

Along the way he tells you what it's like to grow up in sixties Soho, go globetrotting with your best mates, to make a dead pigeon fly and cause an earthquake in Finsbury Park.

LOVED it!

Suggs has a very likeable, energetic warmth in his telling of tales, all fun, heart-warming and interesting.

A chapter from Suggs was more rewarding and comforting than any meditation app during a recent covid lockdown - in part because what he conveyed was from before this time, but also because his natural manner had a way of making me feel like I was hearing stories from a friend.

Grazi Suggs! ♡
