When Cameras Go Crazy Culture Club - When Cameras Go Crazy by Kasper De Graaf
This book was compiled by two journalists at the height of Culture Club's fame, during their "Colour by Numbers" season. The book has a discography, drawings from fans, and much, much more. Most notably, there is a photo of Jon Moss kissing Boy George smack on the mouth. Remember, this was 15 years before VH-1's "Behind the Music" documentary. Further, there are photos of Mickey Craig's children and Roy Hay's (ex?) wife. Additionally, attention is paid to the other members, though Boy has a disproportionate emphasis. I still own my copy of this book and I am pretty sure I'd never part with it.

When Cameras Go Crazy Culture Club - When Cameras Go Crazy by Kasper De Graaf chronicles the meteoric rise of Boy George, up to 1983. Who could've imagined it? That a gender-bending, Grammy-winning band would catapult to pop superstardom, in the conservative climate of the Regan/ Thatcher era?
The book is chock full of George's iconic and enduring contemporaries in 1980's London: Steve Strange (Blitz), Malcolm McClaren (Sex Pistols, Bow Wow Wow), Sue Clowes (The Foundry), Leigh Bowery (performance artist) and Vivienne Westwood (fashion designer).
The book captures the group's early naïve charm and couldn't have predicted their decline; in the midst of scandals and pitfalls of fame.
