Heavy Metal - L.F. Blake

If you want to know what the early 80s Britain felt like and looked like and grasp a sense of the optimism of its youth then this is a book for you, a ridiculous comedy with a satisfying climatic ending.

Eddie Keen on the other hand is a legendary Britiah award-winning stunt biker, do I need to continue? Yes! In this movie you will experience the Teddy Boys, a largely British Based Rock and Roll sub-group, you experience their dancing and attitude.

The book is silly and I will admit that it is not one for those who like to name names and discuss photographic or direction techniques but it is a hell of a lot of fun.  It's the stuff of legends. And if you are American and want to know exactly who the British stuntmen are and what British culture felt like in the late 70s/80s then this is a book not to miss.
