Peter Hook Volgorde van de boeken

„Konečně jsme se dostali na pódium, asi o dvacet minut později, podívali se do davu – pokud se to tak dá nazvat – a tam byli úplně vepředu všichni moji kámoši a pokřikovali na mě: ,Čááááu, Hoooky. Jak to jde, Hooky?´ Culili se na mě a zdvihali palce. Pomyslel jsem si, že je fajn, že se ukázali, ale ty úsměvy a palce si mohli odpustit. My v Joy Division jsme byli velice vážní. Spíš jsme preferovali mračení se.“ Těmito slovy líčí první koncert Joy Division Peter Hook, basák a autor této knihy. V jeho autobiografii se čtenář samozřejmě ale dozví i to, co předcházelo i co následovalo, tedy jak vznikla skupina Warsaw Pakt a proč se přejmenovala na Joy Division, jaké byly další koncerty a co zapříčinilo smrt Iana Curtise.

Peter Hook, as co-founder of Joy Division and New Order, has been shaping the course of popular music for thirty years. He provided the propulsive bass guitar melodies of 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' and the bestselling 12-inch single ever, 'Blue Monday' among many other songs. As co-owner of Manchester's Hacienda club, Hook propelled the rise of acid house in the late 1980s, then suffered through its violent fall in the 1990s as gangs, drugs, greed and a hostile police force destroyed everything he and his friends had created. This is his memory of that era and 'it's far sadder, funnier, scarier and stranger' than anyone has imagined. As young and naive musicians, the members of New Order were thrilled when their record label Factory opened a club. Yet as their career escalated, they toured the world and had top ten hits, their royalties were being ploughed into the Hacienda and they were only being paid £20 per week. Peter Hook looked back at that exciting and hilarious time to write HACIENDA. All the main characters appear - Tony Wilson, Barney, Shaun Ryder - and Hook tells it like it was. Follow Hook throughout this roller-coaster of success, money, confusion and true faith. The perfect gift for your old school music lover.

The iconic bass player tells the third, arguably the most important and certainly most controversial part of his story: the New Order years

As co-founder of Joy Division, Peter Hook was the inspiration behind a band that would shape the course of popular music. He provided the propulsive bass guitar melodies of 'Love Will Tear Us Apart', and was at the heart of the sound that came to define an era and inspire a generation. In Unknown Pleasures, he tells the story of that time; of the music, the madness, the band members and the other characters on the scene that made it the unforgettable, iconic time it was.
