A Thousand Threads - Neneh Cherry

15.95 €

Top of the Pops, December 1988. The world sat up as a young woman made her debut: gold bra, gold bomber jacket and proudly, gloriously, seven months pregnant. This was no ordinary artist. This was Neneh Cherry. Cherry has always been a creative force to be reckoned with. She spent some of her childhood at the iconic Chelsea Hotel; performed with all-girl punk band the Slits as a teenager; was among the pioneers of nineties pop music; and has inspired wave after wave of musicians and artists. In this joyous and electric memoir, Cherry remembers the collaborations, the highs and lows, the friendships and loves, and the addictions and traumas that have shaped her. At the heart of it, always, is family: the extraordinary three generations of artists and musicians that are her inheritance and her legacy.
