He abandoned life in Leeds and let his alter ego Zodiac take him on a trip into the deepest, darkest crevices of the rock landscape with his own diabolical pop group the Love Reaction. Fame and world tours with Guns 'n' Roses and Iron Maiden followed. In 2001, he published the rock biography \u003ci\u003eFucked By Rock\u003c\/i\u003e, in which the usual platitudes of excess seen through expensive sunglasses were replaced by weird tales of the world's underbelly, interband fireworks fights, tour bus vampires, and a road crew who hated the band even more than they hated themselves. Eventually, he conceived of a prequel to be named \u003ci\u003eI Have The Greatest Respect For You George\u003c\/i\u003e. Written in the same ringmaster-cum-casual-observer style, this new work uncovers the weird life of a working class teen poet and rocker in waiting as he grinds his way through the 1970s and all it had to offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cherry Red Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47154165317872,"sku":"9781909454484","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781909454484_p0.jpg?v=1763623965","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781909454484","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
