Death Disco

For ‘Death Disco’ we employed a clairvoyant to contact ten dead rock stars of our choosing to find out each of their current top ten songs or pieces of music. The information received from the clairvoyant, Steve, forms the content of this book.

On the left hand pages is the original data sent to us via emails. These contain interesting additional comments and inconsistencies; either from Steve or from the rock star he was in contact with at that time. On the right hand pages are the refined top ten lists with additional information including, where possible, the album a particular song originally appeared on and its first release date. We have worked on the assumption that the order the songs have been sent to us by the clairvoyant is the correct running order from 1 to 10.
