"Rough Trade, Mute, Factory, 4AD and Creation were fiercely energetic little music hubs, founded on principles of complete artistic involvement, characterised by highly unsound finances, and small enough to retain the imprint of the men who started them. Those pioneers - Geoff Travis, Daniel Miller, Tony Wilson, Ivo Watts-Russell and Alan McGee - are the backbone of the story told by King."
