具体描述

By the time he was 15, Horace was the proud owner of a Rosetti Bass 8 guitar. He couldnt play it, or even tune it, but he could stand in front of his bedroom mirror in sleepy Kettering and imagine himself on stage, a denim-clad, long-haired rock god playing to an adoring crowd. Ten years later and the dream came truekind of. As bass player with The Specials, in his second-hand suit and pork pie hat, Horace was a member of one of the most innovative and exciting bands to come snarling out of the punk era. Founded by Jerry Damners, their fusion of punk, reggae, and ska created a new musical fashion, spearheaded by their own record label Two Tone. Written with wry humour, Skad for Life is a must for all Specials fans and for anyone whos ever dreamed of being a rock star.
