About this product
Product Information
It's the swinging sixties in Sydney, Australia. Patrica and Kell Hutchence are very much part of the cocktail set. Champagne parties, loads of women, lots of playboys, plenty of booze. The new contraceptive pill for women has just been proclaimed as being safe and placed on the market, ushering in the beginning of a new freedom for women. This was the climate that saw the birth of Michael Hutchence. Hutch spent the best part of four explosive decades with us, years of growing up, becoming a pop star and world travelling cavalier, his stature and image growing to become a true icon of the times. But on the roller-coaster ride from obscurity to world-wide sex symbol, he had also become tabloid fodder, and continued to entangle himself in a web of danger. An extremely sensitive man, the seeming-confident Hutchence was, like so many performers, full of self doubt and screaming out to the world for attention. Scarred by years of parental neglect during childhood, caught in the conflict between his dreams and the desire for peace and solitude, driven by a lethal cocktail of drugs and alcohol, completely broken by the battle between his fiancee Paula Yates and her ex-husband Bob Geldof, Hutchence was trapped with nowhere to go. Of course there are many key participants in this book, whose names, at this stage, are confidential: from family members to fellow musicians, to school chums, girlfriends, and friends from LA to New York, Sydney to London, and the nooks and crannies in between. As well as including the voices of obvious and more famous participants in Hutch's life, other key players will be unknown to the public at large - not stars, but ordinary people - and it is from these people that we will hear some of the most interesting stories. This book will present the full, unbiased picture. This will be the definitive biography.
