A large format 450-page full-colour extravaganza of Disco, Punk & Cinema Do you believe in Mirrorballs? Alan Jones always has and DISCOMANIA remains his only lifestyle choice, punctuating actions and emotions throughout his entire existence. Everything he has ever felt has been written in Disco. But Jones was also one of the original Punks, working for British designer icon Vivienne Westwood in her World's End boutique SEX, a DJ for Malcolm McLaren's revolutionary band the Sex Pistols at their formative gigs, and appeared in their biopic The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. Not to mention his landmark, front-page 'Naked Cowboy' T-shirt arrest, his role in the infamous 'God Save the Queen' Jubilee Boat Party and his close friendship with neighbour Sid Vicious. So why did he also embrace the strobe-lit glamour and glitz of the thrilling Disco movement? Through 100-plus deluxe reviews of his all-time top Disco movies from 1973 to the present day, the international film critic, broadcaster, festival organiser and pioneering horror journalist reveals all - about his life, loves and scandals in the two exciting musical genres that have marked his extraordinary Dance Card. Sure, you know Saturday Night Fever, The Bitch, Thank God It's Friday, Xanadu, 54 and Can't Stop the Music. But what about White Pop Jesus, Podium, La discoteca del amor, Don't Go in the House, Brigade mondaine, The Face with Two Left Feet, and Bet on My Disco? 'ALAN JONES - the Oracle of Horror, Punk and Disco' - S'Express frontman and DJ mega-star Mark Moore.

And what Punk memories does this unprecedented and highly original appraisal evoke, one going way beyond the velvet ropes and epitomizing the Disco zeitgeist? With a foreword by S'Express frontman Mark Moore, from First Choice to 'Last Dance' - You'll Love the Night Life!
