Class of 88 - Readers Reviews
'Finally, a real account of what actually happened during the rave sensation of the late eighties and early nineties. The book was written by Wayne Anthony, a well respected party organiser who went by the name 'Genesis'. This book has been slated for glamorising drug use. I disagree and feel it just tells the public what really happened.' Daniel B - Birmingham
'Well finally somebody has written a REAL life account of the true acid house experience. I'd like to thank Wayne Anthony for his effort put in doing these parties. I wish I could remember it but as the press keep saying " XTC affects the short term memory ". ' A reader from Hull
'This book turned back time for me as I went to all the genesis raves, and believe me this was exactly how it was. I thought the book was well written, and is the only real to life book which I have read where I actually felt like I was there. ' A reader from London

'I read your book a year ago after a friend in the soundsystem loaned me it. As the main organiser of our parties i read it avidly to see what i could learn and also to hear you guys used to do it. I must admit i was mightily impressed by the teamwork that went on then. It certainly dwarfs the efforts of many of todays underground systems.' Pankster
