Filled with the sights and sounds of a changing world and a remarkable life, and updated with a new chapter by the author, Girl in a Band is a moving, evocative chronicle of an extraordinary artist.
This tenth anniversary edition also includes a new foreword by Rachel Kushner.

'So much more than a rock biog, Girl in a Band is a unique record of the past fifty years of alternative culture.' NME
'This memoir is a kind of setting ablaze of a life's work that, for Gordon, is now inextricable from heartbreak.' Guardian
