Comment
Jarvis Cocker's "Musical Map of Sheffield" is a gripping account of the places, people and experiences that shaped the singer: family life with Mum but without Dad; the meningitis that almost killed him; his dreams of living in space; and the infamous Lederhosen Incident, when he was sent to school wearing leather shorts. "The good thing about the Sheffield character," he says, "is that people aren't impressed with whether you're supposed to be somebody or something. If you start trying to throw your weight around or having airs or graces ... you'll just get decked." Fleshing things out are music from Cabaret Voltaire and the Human League, social commentary from Karl Marx, and a stirring speech from David Blunkett, before he went over to the dark side.
