Before We Was We Av Mike Barson, Mark Bedford, Chris Foreman, Graham Mcpherson, Cathal Smyth, Lee Thompson, Dan Woodgate

<b>New Foreword by Irvine Welsh.</b><br><br>In<i> Before We Was We </i>Madness tell us how they became them. A story of seven originals, whose collective graft, energy and talent took them from the sweaty depths of the Hope and Anchor''s basement to the <i>Top of the Pops</i> studio.<br><br>In their own words they each look back on shared adventures. Playing music together, riding freight trains, spraying graffiti and stealing records. Walking in one another''s footsteps by day and rising up through the city''s exploding pub music scene by night. <i>Before We Was We</i> is irreverent, funny and full of character. Just like them.
