4.0 out of 5 stars Robert Smith is God, June 3, 1998

This review is from: The Cure a Visual Documentary (Ord No. Op46887) (Paperback)

"The Cure-A Visual Documentary" is a fascinating book about the one of the greatest bands in the world today, The Cure. This book is a must for any Cure fan out there! It starts with the formation of the band in 1972 and is full of beautiful pictures of Robert Smith and the band through all the years up to 1992. The book lists every "gig" played by the Cure in those 20 years, interviews and quotes from Robert, album reviews, concert reviews, rare releases, and even a comprehensive discograghy in the back of the book. If you love the Cure like I do, you will love this book!

A Cure worshipper (like myself)'s dream book!! Tons of fabulous pictures, listings of every concert (up until Wish, that is) and lots of fun little facts for the Cure expert to absorb. Buy this book, fellow Cureheads, you won't regret it!! I promise! :)

4.0 out of 5 stars a classic favourite..., December 14, 1998

what cure fan doesn't own this? i remember reading this book (the older edition) cover to cover, years ago, and feeling like i wanted to follow the band all over the world! dave thompson is clearly an authority on the band, but i've always felt that this book misses out on the spirit of the cure, dwelling mainly on factual information. of course, the gig listings are great for organizing your bootleg cassette collection!
