Work history
Missing one main element
4/5

Corky

The problem is the leader of the band is not really interviewed. Shane's words are taken from past things he had said at different times. About all of the book is from everybody else's view, which is interesting reading in itself but I want to have a clear insight of what happened from Shane's perspective which will never happen. Most of his memories are probally distorted or lost anyway.

Carol Clerk had a difficult task in sorting out legend and fact from multiple perspectives to tell this story. She does it through extensive interviews, with the band, their peers, associates, managers and hangers-on. She doesn't try to write a narrative, she just let's everyone have their say - which is fortunate, because the band members are articulate, witty, intelligent and (surprisingly) sentimental. A great chronicle of the 75-80 zeitgeist; decent third party perspectives on the evo and devo-lution of MacGowan's genius; a good portrait of the expat Irish and the boys from County Hell.
