Description - Early Rik: Thoughts Of A Clown - Rik Mayall In The Early Eighties by Chris Shields
In the history of comedy, there’s been a small group of special individuals: WC Fields, Laurel & Hardy, Spike Milligan, Tony Hancock, Tommy Cooper, John Cleese and Rik Mayall. Rik Mayall exploded on to the comedy scene in the 1980s. He was so original, successful and hysterically funny that he became the most loved comic in Britain. Explode he really did – at the forefront and the leader of this new ‘alternative comedy’, he was shocking, exciting and breath-taking, provoking hysteria similar to the beginnings of rock’n’roll. This book documents his first ten years in 'showbiz' from 1976 to 1986. Full of colour pics. 'So do up your trousers, keep your shoes clean and throw away your old Young Ones scrapbook as this book contains all the old pics - in colour'.
