Description
The Story of Derek and Clive The dark and foul-mouthed alter ego of comedy duo Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, Derek and Clive, emerged in the mid 1970s as a private joke that gained a cult following on bootleg recordings. The duo's popularity eventually led to the recording of three albums and a controversial film, forever changing the face of comedy. This book delves into the formation and split of Cook and Moore, and the legacy of their influential alter egos. With exclusive insights from producer Hugh Padgham, who engineered their final album, the book offers a unique perspective on the dirty magic behind Derek and Clive's success.
