JAMES ACASTER | Perfect Sound Whatever

The hilarious and heartwarming memoir charts an obsessive music challenge which Acaster undertook in order to get his life back on track after a disastrous year, featuring tales of getting trapped in a New York blizzard, stealing a cookie from Clint Eastwood, and disrespecting a pensioner on live TV

This has been a big old project for me and I feel extremely lucky to be able to turn it into a book. I bought over 500 albums, all released in 2016, because I was having a tough 2017 and thank god this book finally gives me something to show for it. This is a book about obsession, mental health and reconnecting with modern day music again. Oh and also about the greatest year for music of all time – 2016.
