Rock’n’roll was a haven for drop-outs and weirdos




epub or mobi, with thanks to the original sharer
 
As an impressionable teenager, I adored Keith for his claim to 22 jobs in a year, imagining that every other Monday morning, he suffered such a furious come-down and cared so little about a conventional career that when challenged on his discipline or lateness he launched into his own version of Jimmy's classic quote in the Quadrophenia movie: "Why don't you take this job and stick it up your arse?!" Finding out that Keith actually held down one regular job for 18 months straight is almost as bad a let down as being told he didn't play drums on Who records.

  4. Neal,
    Just checked the link & it seems to be working fine. Just click on either of the 2 'download' buttons, one at top right & one in centre of screen & you should get the file.
    all the best,
    Johnny
