Punk

By: Ray Burston

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Britain in the late 1970s was dubbed the ‘sick man of Europe’; a country engulfed by social, economic, and industrial malaise; a country teetering on the precipice of political revolution.

What the country got instead was a musical revolution – an explosion of brash new bands whose loud, fast-paced anthems articulated the boredom and frustration of its disenchanted youth.

Having quit the music business in disillusionment, David ‘Bomber’ Harris is nowadays a devoted family man. However, this brilliant, instinctive drummer is persuaded to pick up his sticks anew and make his own mark upon this riotous cultural phenomena.

Yet soon enough he will rediscover that the world of rock-and-roll music is as capricious and cut-throat as it ever was, all too ready to chew up and spit out those of its practitioners who cleave tomisplaced ideals – especially one who is meantime wrestling with his own terrifying personal demons.

‘Punk’ is the sequel to Ray Burston’s previous novel ‘Glam’
