A Thousand Years of a London Street…
DENMARK STREET
PAPERBACK BOOK 310 Pages. Illustrated throughout.
Denmark Street and the site on which it was built, has witnessed a millennium of rock stars, mass murderers, inventors, serial killers, queens, rebels, rogues, lepers, poets,
explorers, arsonists, swordsmen, activists, criminals, anarchists, racing drivers, reformers, schemers, dreamers, pirates, plague victims, great lovers, pioneers, and songwriters. The Kray Twins, The Beatles, Karl Marx, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, Elton John, General Tom Thumb, Tom Jones, Casanova, The Rolling Stones, The Sex Pistols, Paul Simon,
Charlie Chaplin, Johan Zoffany and hundreds of other familiar names, all walked, worked, or wrote in this site. The New Musical Express and the Melody Maker began here, and it was, for a century, the home of our songwriters and the British music publishing industry.
