Description

Jeff Duff is arguably the most flamboyant, creative and controversial entertainer Australia has produced. His musical gifts and fantastical androgynous performances parallel the artistry of David Bowie. While Duffos career kicked off in the 1970s, he continues to grow as an artist, creating new music and performing sell-out concerts to this day. In his tell-all memoir, dedicated to Bowie, Duffo shares his tales of life, love and rocknroll, in what is a rollicking, entertaining read. From his childhood desire to wear a dress, to performing before violent London punk crowds, to being banned and arrested, and even his journey into the depths of despair, Duffo recalls all with flair and style.

My life sometimes reads like a comedy of errors, but believe me, it's all very real. The Duffo story is a collection of anecdotes covering much of my life and my career in Australia, the United Kingdom, Japan, Europe and America.

About the Author
Jeff Duff once hosted Countdown dressed as a sausage. Unique is an over-used word in showbiz. But Jeff Duff is unique. When I first met Jeff, he was wearing a wedding dress. That was just a usual day in the unusual life of Jeff Duff. Hes been arrested in Ballarat and outside Number 10 Downing Street in London, banned by Ray Martins Midday Show, appeared in Baz Luhrmanns The Great Gatsby, and sung some unforgettable songs. And no man looks as good in a leotard. Flamboyant, eccentric, cheeky, charming ... Jeff Duff is one of the greatest entertainers Australia has produced.

Reviews
"I dont think its overstating the case to say that, had Jeff Duff hailed from a country in the top half of the world, he could now be as acknowledged and acclaimed as David Bowie or Lou Reed or Iggy Pop." Glenn A. Baker, rock historian

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
