Danny Baker is a national treasure with a well-documented - thanks to the recent eight-part BBC TV adaptation - and colourful life. For over a quarter of a century, he has amused and entertained audiences on both radio and television. Beginning his career at the age of 15 in a small record shop in London's West End, Danny went on to become an acclaimed music journalist and started his radio career on BBC GLR in 1989.

The best is his trilogy
As funny as the first two of his autobiographies, and Danny's description of his cancer treatment is very very interesting, and shocking.

Just brilliant
Even the tougher subjects are tackled with enormous heart, wit and honesty. Let’s hope there will be a part 4?

outstanding writing and Performance
this book is expertly written and brilliantly performed by Danny Baker. The stories are expertly weaved and so brilliantly illustrated with excellent description. Section about cancer is as expected, very dark indeed full stop I just about made it through these chapters but Danny's amazing ability to bring things to life provides captivating listening. Highly recommended as part of the Trio of these books

Hugely enjoyable (but a few pick ups need editing out)
Hugely enjoyable as were the two previous books. Danny is such great company. (Sort it out though, Orion. There are 3 pick ups that need editing out 😊)

Glorious glorious Candyman
Oh I have just had the loveliest few weeks listening to all three books. It’s been like having Danny back on the radio in my drive home. Have never read or listened to a better written or performed biog. Stands up and applauds. Thank you Candyman.
