Anoint My Head

di Andy MacLeod (Autore)

Omnibus Press, 2026

'Captures the time and the aspirations of a young band brilliantly. A great eye-opener into the absurd thought process of what it might take to headline Glastonbury!' Steve Lamacq, BBC A coming-of-age story about pursuing your dreams and what happens when reality gets in the way. It’s 1992 and Andy (aka Horace) dreams of becoming a rockstar with his band, the Pointy Birds. The only problem is that his day job (mis)filing vinyl in a Soho record store is stealing all his time and energy, plus rival bands like Suede, Blur, Pulp and Radiohead are moving on to bigger and better things. But everything changes when someone called Ricky Gervais offers his services as a band manager, and at last the dream can start. Anoint My Head is the tale of a band who didn’t become rich or famous, but had a manager who did. It is also the story of a musical era, documenting the rise of some of the biggest Britpop bands of the nineties, plus a comedian who went on to write quite a successful sitcom about a paper merchants in Slough.
