What if the things we keep hidden say more about us than those we put on display?

We all have a random collection of the things that made us - photos, tickets, clothes, souvenirs, stuffed in a box, packed in a suitcase, crammed into a drawer. When Jarvis Cocker starts clearing out his loft, he finds a jumble of objects that catalogue his story and ask him some awkward questions:

Who do you think you are?

Are clothes important?

Why are there so many pairs of broken glasses up here?

From a Gold Star polycotton shirt to a pack of Wrigley's Extra, from his teenage attempts to write songs to the Sexy Laughs Fantastic Dirty Joke Book, this is the hard evidence of Jarvis's unique life, Pulp, 20th century pop culture, the good times and the mistakes he'd rather forget. And this accumulated debris of a lifetime reveals his creative process - writing and musicianship, performance and ambition, style and stagecraft.

This is not a life story. It's a loft story.

Recorded on location with the author and featuring archival material, Good Pop, Bad Pop, is an intimate and immersive listening experience with an icon of British culture.

Brilliant... accessible, pithy, lurid, entertaining, even laugh-out-loud funny... we can only hope that Cocker has enough tat for a second volume.
Poignant in a subtle, understated way; Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time for the age of the Ford Cortina... This book is about a very normal childhood and the everyday detritus it left behind. Common people indeed.
Incredibly entertaining...a trip through the things that have made him who he is.
Rummage through its pages - through the plastic and nylon, the tin and vinyl - and it's real gold, its shirts second-hand, of course, but its storytelling first class.
Brilliant... Good Pop, Bad Pop is more than anyone dared hope for
Absolutely fabulous: at once very witty, self-depreciating and moving.
Thoughtful and very funny... terrific
Engaging and evocative. He [Cocker] paints a vividly drab picture of the north of England under Thatcherism. And his book is beautiful to look at, too, set out like pop art.
Like a pop culture Proust... a testament to just how rich this junk is that Cocker can weave such a compelling take.
Insightful and delightful.

This reminded me of how wonderful Jarvis Cocker is and made me like him even more than I did already. What a brilliant guy! If you’ve ever smiled at his wit or sung along to his songs, treat yourself to some time in his company. Already waiting for part two…

Bloody marvellous!

A collection of stories and anecdotes from Jarvis Cocker whilst sorting out is loft, this book is both entertaining and throughly enjoyable, and made even better as it’s narrated by Jarvis himself.
