69 Exhibition Road: Twelve True-Life Tales from the Fag End of Punk, Porn & Performance
Label
Strange Attractor Press
Release Date
November 18, 2022

While working as a photographer’s model, gallery usher, and exotic dancer, Dorothy “Max” Prior witnessed the births of Adam and the Ants, The Monochrome Set, The Sex Pistols, and Throbbing Gristle, as well as drumming in her own cult band Rema Rema and recording with Industrial Records.

Her exuberant commentaries, each presented as a stand- alone episode, illustrate the multilayered nature of the

London music, art, and fashion worlds of the late 1970s, and the overlap between the early punk scene with the city’s rapidly evolving club and queer cultures.

"Max, as I always knew her in those happy punk /post-punk days, has a gentleness and elegance of mind and body. Thank you Max for all the foresight you have, and are showing. You’ve always heralded the future."

  • Jordan

"Before punk was even called ‘punk’ – when something foul to most but the sweetest
nectar to the few was bubbling up from the depths – there was Max.”

  • Ted Polhemus

"Max was there – from proto-punk performing and the early punk rock Sex shop scene, to drumming at the beginning of Adam and the Ants and the Monochrome Set, then on through post-punk with Rema-Rema and cyber-psychedelic-punk with Psychic TV."
