Description
Stuart 'Scooby' Cochrane's life was marked by excess and rebellion, as he helped shape the UK's clubbing scene in the late 1980s. With friends Javier and Caroline Anadon, he co-founded Cafe Mambo in Ibiza, achieved chart success with Rozalla's 'Everybody's Free', and fought a high-profile battle to claim Dario G's 'Sunchyme' as his own creation. However, this world of glamour and music soon took its toll. Cochrane struggled with addiction and mental health issues, culminating in 23 psychiatric admissions over 16 years. Despite the challenges he faced, he continued to build a successful career, managing nightclubs and being at the forefront of the rave movement in Scotland. In this book, Cochrane shares his story, revealing the highs and lows of life on the 'pharmaceutically enhanced fast lane'. From the thrill of creating a clubbing phenomenon to the darkness of addiction and mental health struggles, he offers a candid and often shocking look at the excesses of 1980s and 1990s UK nightlife.
