Critics Review
Stoned is not a cautionary tale it’s a celebration and carries the hope that any self-respecting impassioned young 19-year-old of today would do the same * Guardian *
A sterling work of brutal youth and brash vulgarity… a heady mix of innocence and glamour, uppers and downers, flashiness and outrage, insouciance and deceit * Time Out *
A dazzling overview of early 60s London life, Stoned is vastly aided by the testimony of everyone from Pete Townshend to Jimmy Greaves * G Magazines *
A fascinating and original perspective on that heady moment when a buttoned-up Britain finally lost its innocence and…youth culture was born * Mail on Sunday *
The most flash personality British pop ever had, the most anarchic and obsessive and imaginative hustler of all * Nick Cohn *
