"From personal blogs to end-of-year critic polls; from the films of Quentin Tarantino to the books of Nick Hornby; music fans have always loved to compile and to indulge, to collect and to hoard. Mixing anecdote, humour, reference and quality anorak behaviour, Hang the DJ is a collection of lists about musical loves and hates, dreams and nightmares. Including contributions from bloggers, journalists, novelists, poets and musicians, it is the literary equivalent of a great pub jukebox - inspiring, provocative and irresistible"--Jacket.
