From the early days of pop when The Beatles shook the Caird Hall, to the current day when local heroes The View shake that same hall, Dundee has had a rich and passionate connection with music.

This book takes us on a journey from the heyday of the dancehalls through to todays diverse music scene.

Dundees musical history is littered with famous names including the Average White Band, Billy Mackenzie and the Associates, Danny Wilson, Ricky Ross from Deacon Blue and Michael Marra.

This book covers that and much more, including local heroes such as St. Andrew and Dougie Martin figures who are respected beyond the city limits.

It looks at the rich jazz and folk scenes as well as the record stores, venues and figures that have made the music scene in the city so vibrant.

Through their own words we see behind the scenes and share the stories that made Dundee music great fun.
