Rather than approaching the band through conventional biography, the guide uses the city as its organising principle. Family homes, schools and music venues sit alongside record and music shops, and the natural world around them. Emerging from Cambridge in the early 1960s, Syd Barrett, David Gilmour and Roger Waters attended the same schools and played the same venues before leaving for London. This guide places those connections on the map - and draws a direct line between specific Cambridge locations and some of the most celebrated songs in rock history. A fold-out map guide to be used on the street as well as read at home. Each location is accompanied by concise notes placing it within the band's story and Cambridge's cultural history.
