A sharp, satirical gem in the humour genre, The Fun Starts Here by Kevin Godley and Lol Creme presents a visually rich and irreverent parody of the rock and roll lifestyle. This illustrated collection of short stories and pen-and-ink sketches chronicles the absurdities and contradictions of the music industry as experienced by two of its most inventive insiders. With biting wit and graphic flair, Godley and Creme dismantle the glamour of fame, offering vignettes like “A Roadie’s Funeral” and “Epitaph for a Star” that mock the excesses and eccentricities of their era. The book stands as both a cathartic creative outlet and a clever commentary on the surreal world they inhabited during their 1970s musical heyday. Though long out of print, it remains a cult favourite among fans of rock memoirs and visual satire.
