Description
James Brown's Loaded: A Story of Ambition and Excess In the 1990s, James Brown's magazine became the defining publication of its generation. Bright, loud, funny, and provocative, Loaded captured the hedonistic lifestyle of its audience, from the barracks of Afghanistan to the England dressing room at Euro '96. Its success was meteoric, rocketing from zero to half a million sales in months. Behind the magazine's success lay a complex personal story. Brown's journey from a high school drop-out fanzine writer to NME features editor and Loaded founder is one of ambition, excess, and ultimately, crisis. This book tells his remarkable story, from the highs of Loaded's unexpected success to its eventual collapse, and the lessons he learned along the way. Brown's answer to the question of how he managed to sell so many magazines while taking so many risks is a candid and often shocking account of his experiences.
