By (author): Jeremy Reed Marc Almond

Piccadilly Bongo finds Jeremy Reed, described by Pete Doherty as 'a legend', at his most imaginatively brilliant, writing about his particular London milieu, and most often Soho. The collection, fuelled by breathtaking imagery, is complemented by a CD of Soho Songs from the pop legend and Britain's leading torch singer Marc Almond, as a unique collaboration expressive of deeply-felt, evocative Piccadilly associations. The creative sympathies shared by the two artists is not only a first for poetry, but a powerfully original fusion of energies focused on the Piccadilly ethos of Johnny Go Home . See more

About Jeremy ReedMarc Almond

Jeremy Reed is Britain's most dynamic adventurous controversial and futuristic poet. Called by the Independent 'British poetry's glam spangly shape-shifting answer to David Bowie' his poetry fiction and performances are inimitable in their opposition to grey mainstream poetry. He has published over 40 books of poetry fiction and non-fiction winning prestigious literary prizes like the Somerset Maugham Award. When he came to live in London in the 1980s he received he patronage of Francis Bacon. Marc Almond is an internationally acclaimed and successful artist. He has sold over 30 million records worldwide and is an icon and influence to a generation of musicians. He shot to fame in the early 1980s after collaborating with David Ball to form the 'electro duo' Soft Cell. They recorded four albums and had a number of top ten hits including the international classic 'Tainted Love'. After parting amicably from Soft Cell in 1984 Marc Almond has pursued a musical career as a solo artist. He is now the UK's leading torch singer.
