Scotland fell for rock ’n’ roll at a very early stage. From the post-war period to the new century, the nation has generated more rock stars per head than anywhere else in the world. Big Noise looks at the sound of Scotland and discovers its background through the stories and memories of those who made it. Using a blend of exclusive interviews and unpublished photos, Martin Kielty presents a character-led portrait of the fans, bands and businessmen who were there. The narrative moves from the early days of skiffle and ballrooms, through the global success stories of the 70s and 80s to the pop giants of today, sharing many personal moments behind hundreds of hits and misses.
