— E. Lynn Harris, New York Times bestselling author“Brewster and Broughton...have written a lively and—to anyone with a more than casual interest in the history of popular music in the latter half of the twentieth century—necessary volume.”
— New York Times Book Review“What makes [Last Night a DJ Saved My Life] so good, besides the crisp, lucid writing, is that it also gives a fascinating, episodic history of the jive-talking radio DJs and Parisian discos that established the themes that would play out in hip-hop, disco and rave culture.”
— Salon“These British music-mag writers deliver the goods with humor and a basic sense of good storytelling.”
— Vibe“A riveting look at record spinning from its beginnings to the present day, the authors show that the history and art of deejaying makes for a grander and more fascinating story than one would think...The book is intricately detailed and informative, filled with grand themes and historical anecdotes, all leavened with a wiseass humor that keeps the whole thing from getting too pretentious.”
