Raving '89

DJ History presents this unique book, 'Raving '89' which captures like never before the revolutionary atmosphere of the early rave scene. Acid house exploded in London and Manchester in 1988; then in 1989 the whole country 'got on one' and went raving. The second book from DJhistory.com is a collection of amazing photographs from this explosive year. 'Raving '89' takes you through a year of suburban raves, with 200 fantastic images collected together as if a single dramatic night: grimy warehouses, phones the size of bricks, smiles, hugs, lasers and dungarees; lives changed, faces lost in music, casualties, friends and general mayhem; with rogues and wrong'uns lurking in the corners, and more than a few crimes against fashion. As well as Gavin's unique pictures, the book is sprinkled with great stories from him and his brother Neville of the momentous year when British culture changed forever. 'Raving '89' puts you in the heart of the action. If you lived through acid house, Gavin Watson's photos will give you goose-bumps; if you didn't, they're the closest you'll get.

"I'd sit and watch people. You could tell the moment like THAT! Your life's not going to be the same ever again." - Gavin Watson.
