The Manchester Wheelers; a Northern Quadrophenia - Dave Anonymous - Bog

Manchester's love affair with black American music of the 1960s. Enter the world of the ups and the paranoid downs of amphetamine fuelled all night dancing; duplicated later in the seventies 'Northern Soul Scene'. This was the beginning, where it all started. A Mod, too long without sleep in a toilet cubicle, examines his mind and finds he has no control over its runaway repetitive musical replay. It won't stop and the loss of his girlfriend doesn't help. This is the story of an unravelling mind, recounting the untold story of a youth movement in a Northern town. A lost account, not found in any other books written about this scene, based around real events. A historical document of the lost, real story of the Manchester Soul Mods. A novel that gives the inside story of Mod styles, Mod arrogance and the underground Soul scene that was an essential part of Manchester's youth movement in a hedonistic decade.
