Rock Music joins the Devil in a fantastic fandango. He becomes funnier the more you read him.' IndependentIt has always been John Omally's secret ambition to become a rock star. In his youth he mastered air guitar and wardrobe-mirror posing, but he lacked that certain something. Talent. But at last an opportunity has arisen for John to get into 'The Industry'. A band called Gandhi's Hairdryer are looking for a manager, so all John has to do is persuade them that he is the new Brian Epstein. It should be a piece of cake. But - and there's always a but - there is something rather odd about this band. Something other-worldly. It might be the lead singer, whose voice has the power to heal. Might she be an angel, perhaps Or could she be the Devil in disguise Because, after all, the Devil does have all the best tunes. And this is Brentford.In this, his final offering of the twentieth century, Robert Rankin returns to the town of his birth, the friends of his youth and one of the loves of his life- Rock Music.'Everybody should read at least one Robert Rankin in their life.'
