Reviews
The heart and energy [Roger] displayed as The Beat’s perpetually in-motion, ageless MC and voice over decades is fully present in this conversational, positive and grateful memoir. - Mojo
The chatty, unpretentious narrative documents pop’s gleefully glamourous side. - Q Magazine
A charming snapshot of not only Roger’s life, but a bygone era of Britain and the music industry, a fine swansong. - Classic Pop
