London's Lost Music Venues
By Paul Talling. Damaged Goods Books.
Two photographic guidebooks to the iconic lost live music venues of London, as they are today.
Did you get tinnitus from too many gigs at The Bull & Gate? Spent your youth propping up the bar at The Marquee Club? Or witness early gigs by rock legends on Eel Pie Island? Then these books are for you!
Paul Talling, author of Derelict London and London's Lost Rivers (Penguin Random House) takes a look at some of London's much missed music venues from the post-war period to the present day. Featuring photos, adverts & tickets, these books are a portal to a less homogenised London, taking you back to the city's halcyon days of jazz, blues, folk, rock, punk, indie and more. In the first volume, Paul focuses on the smaller, club-sized venues. A second volume was released in June 2022 which covers larger lost venues and a few smaller ones not covered in the first volume.
The books take a look at some iconic venues of the last 60 years with images, flyers and modern-day photos of what they are now.
