Publisher's Synopsis
Fuelled by amphetamine psychosis and the music of Bob Dylan and the Fugs, a band of the people playing for free from flatbed trucks or on bills with the likes of Led Zeppelin, The Deviants and Pink Fairies were a key in shaping a London that was still swinging. Deakin tells the fascinating story of a musical and social movement that left psychedelia behind and pre-empted punk rock. Also features Pink Floyd, the Incredible String Band, the Edgar Broughton Band and Hawkwind.
