Dave Thomson

    Dave Thompson ist ein englischer Autor, der sein Arbeitsleben der Biografie anderer widmete, aber sehr zurückhaltend ist, wenn es um sein eigenes Leben geht. Im Gegensatz zu den oft dramatischen Biografien seiner bekannten Subjekte hat er nie an Reality-TV teilgenommen, spielt keine Instrumente und kann nicht tanzen. Dennoch hat er weit über hundert Bücher geschrieben und sich als erfahrener Musikjournalist einen Namen gemacht, der von Rock und Punk geprägt ist und eine Vorliebe für die Musik der Siebziger hat. Während seine frühen Prognosen über Musikgruppen oft danebenlagen, zeugen seine umfassenden Kenntnisse und seine Leidenschaft für Musik von einer bemerkenswerten Karriere, die sich mit einer breiten Palette von Künstlern befasst.
