This is without doubt the best yarn about a pop group ever written and then spoken as an audiobook.
From their time as the JAMs to their success as the KLF and then burning £1m as the K Foundation.
Drummond and Cauty have embarked on a series of fortunate events.

The Second Summer of Love retells the history not of just one summer, 1988, but also the build up through the 1970s, early 1980s and especially 1987 onwards through each season of the year.

Bringing together DJ’s, performers, promoters, clubbers, and even the police. It gives a full picture of all the various strands of activity happening in Ibiza, Chicago, Berlin, Detroit, Manchester, Wigan, the M25 motorway, and of course London to come together in one massive Rave at Stonehenge.

Takes the standard ‘making of a movie’ book trope into something that is perfect for an audiobook. With the actors mentioned in Cary’s story interjecting with their own thoughts and feelings to fill out the story from their perspective too. A wonderful and engrossing listen for any fan of the movie.
