Never Understood: The Jesus and Mary Chain

Reid, Jim, Reid, William

A TELEGRAPH MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR A ROUGH TRADE BOOK OF THE YEAR AN UNCUT BOOK OF THE YEAR A RESIDENT MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR In Never Understood, William Jim tell the story of The Jesus and Mary Chain - one of Britain's greatest guitar bands - for the very first time. A wildly funny and improbably moving chronicle of brotherly strife, feedback, riots, drug and alcohol addiction, eternal outsiders and extreme shyness - and a love letter to the Scottish working-class family - Never Understood is a bona-fide classic of rock 'n' roll literature. 'Here is the story of the Reid brothers' rollercoaster life. Scream if you want to go faster: they'll almost certainly oblige' Ian Rankin 'Entertaining . . . fraught, funny and occasionally farcical' The Scotsman
