Press Reviews

“The most amazing project I have ever come across - bonkers and beautiful in equal measures, it’s a work of genius. From The Janitors to the Shop Assistants, The Philpotts have managed to track down and delve deep into the hidden messages within some of the greatest music written & recorded in the last 50 years. These bands were the soundtrack to 80s Britain, so it’s wonderful to still remember them fondly and hear their thoughts on cryptic lyrics they thought no-one was paying attention to. Glad someone cares. The class of C86 had high standards.”
David Eastaugh, The C86 Show

Recommended to any indie-pop fan who cherishes the impertinent nonsense of the Viz letters page"
Nige Tassell, author of Whatever Happened To The C86 Kids?

"The legendary Philpotts entice the DIY recording, cardigan wearing, floppy fringed, guitar jangling, awkward shoe-gazing shufflers out of their bedrooms in this latest volume of letters. If you know your Nervous Twitch from your New FADS and Soup Dragons from your Shop Window this is an essential purchase"
Iain Key, Louder Than War

“Old Philpott is now too well known to catch anyone out, so his intrusive ramblings are treated with respect and often agonised over by people receiving their first letter in decades. Part of the charm of a book where you’re rediscovering pretty much all of its inhabitants, is the civility and wit that erupts on virtually every page. Experience the pure joy of beginning with jovial bollocks, then multiplying that with cheerful cobblers.”
'Mick Mirther'

“These books are a national institution and should have their own stage at Glastonbury.”
Mark Stay, The Best Seller Experiment
