Bursting onto the music scene in the 70's, Chas 'n' Dave released songs that spoke about life in London, using their own accents rather than the fashionable but fake transatlantic twang. They knew that if they wrote and sang about their own experience rather than simply making up the bollocks that was normally expected then people would be interested. With hits like "Gertcha", "Rabbit", "The Sideboard Song" and "Margate", they created a sound that was uniquely British and rockin' to boot. What most people don't know is that both Chas and Dave had previous careers, playing with the likes of Jerry Lee Lewis, nor the stories about getting nicked fishing, getting cracked onto by dodgy producers, going barmy locked in recording studios, playing with the Beatles and generally getting pissed and having a laugh. If you've ever wondered what makes this legendary duo tick (or even which one is bloody which) then this is the book for you!
This book reveals all about one of England's greatest, best-loved bands--the men who put Cockney into rock, and made Rockney! Bursting onto the music scene in the 1970s, Chas 'n' Dave released songs that spoke about life in London, using their own accents rather than the fashionable but fake transatlantic twang. Thirty odd years later, thousands flocked across the fields of Glastonbury to witness an unforgettable gig. Their songs have become classics, from the "Sideboard Song," "Gertcha," "Rabbit," and "Margate," to the achingly beautiful "Ain't no Pleasin' You," and through them they created a sound that was pure Chas 'n' Dave and rockin' to boot. What most people don't know is that both Chas and Dave had previous careers, Dave playing in London Country bands, working as a session musician and touring America with Mick Greenwood; Chas touring as bass player to Jerry Lee Lewis (when Chas really began to learn piano) and Gene Vincent, even playing as a band member of the Beatles one time. Nor do they know the hilarious stories about Chas getting nicked fishing and for tearing up and down the country chucking half-pound bags of flour at passing motorists, then getting cracked onto by dodgy producers who had more in mind than music to give 'em a thrill! If you've ever wondered what makes this legendary duo tick or the inspiration behind the songs (or even just which one is bloody which), then read this book!

Chas and Dave (often billed as Chas 'n' Dave) were a pop rock duo, formed in London, England, UK by Chas Hodges and Dave Peacock. They were best known as the creators and performers of a musical style labelled rockney (a portmanteau of rock and cockney), which mixed "pub singalong, music-hall humour, boogie-woogie piano and early rock 'n' roll."
