"signed, deluxe, hardback, cloth-bound book with embossed cover. limited to 1000. featuring exclusive photographs of felt's career and all text by lawrence. felt, a unique and special band, produced ten albums in ten years - a veritable musical feat. this beautifully produced book tracks felt's journey over the decade from 1980 to 1989. it celebrates the individual and eccentric world inhabited by lawrence with rare and unseen pictures from his personal archive alongside shots from an extensive range of photographers including joe dilworth, paul hartnett and donna ranieri. inexplicably, felt remains a cult phenomenon. this book however, will appeal not just to the felt aficionado but to those interested in the bona fide british musical genius who was also behind denim and go - kart mozart. with an introduction by bob stanley (saint etienne) and all other text by lawrence, the book offers his personal comments on the band - its development, style and influences. it also casts some light on the challenges faced by lawrence. a very special piece of art.
