He is the author of Images of England through Popular Music: Class, Youth and Rock 'n' Roll 1955-1976 and an editor of the Dictionary of Labour Biography.
This book examines the development of northern soul, its clubs, publications, and practices by locating it in the shifting economic and social context of the English midlands and north in the 1970s. Using fanzines, diaries, letters, and oral testimony it presents a vivid insight into the scene. It makes a major contribution to our understanding of the connections between class and music in post-war Britain.
