The Verve: Photographs by Chris Floyd

I bought this book and been looking for it for years now…..didn’t know the name tho!But I was in the book and it brought back so many awesome memories of The Verve and how 100% of those concerts were not parent approved😂They were a really incredible band, even with all the drama of Kate 😁

If you're a Verve fan, this book is a good one to have in your collection. There are quite a few previously unpublished photos of the band, particularly from the Urban Hymns period. The intro by the photographer Chris Floyd is nicely written and gives an interesting insight into what it was like in the mid-late nineties before smart phones and social media took over our lives. It would've been cool to have captions or stories to go along with the pictures to make it more of a story, hence I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5.

This is a beautiful book. The page quality and colors are great. There is an awesome section at the end that gives fans a voice. Also there is a section that shows a simple description of locations of photos. I read a previous review where only 4 stars were given because there wasn’t more info on the pictures but I don’t think it’s necessary to love this book. I am going to buy 2 more copies as gifts to my other Verve lover loved ones.

I like the book, the photographs gave an intimate look of the band on tour. Touring & being on the road can be rough, but you can see how in the early years they enjoyed their success touring as a band. I specifically love the photos of them enjoying their tour of America, they seem to clearly love visiting our country as much as we appreciate their music. There is not a lot of text to explain some of the shots but I did enjoy the book. It's an intimate look of the Verve on their early tours.

A fascinating look at a band at a time before the digital revolution. Wonderful pictures and binding. Overall the pictures are humanizing and show the realities of what touring looks like for a band that has a vision for its greatness. A must-have for The Verve fans.

Absolutely loved the photos. If you love the Verve this is a must own with some great performance and behind the scenes photos in it.

Amazing photos of the best band ever. Period.

Certe persone hanno tutte le fortune, non solo sono baciate da un immenso talento musicale ma hanno pure l'aspetto inconfondibile delle rockstar. Questo bel libro fotografico ripercorre l'immaginifica cavalcata della band verso l'olimpo, a partire dal 1994 fino al 1998, dando giustamente il maggiore spazio al magnifico anno del signore 1997 dove i Verve erano semplicemente la migliore band del pianeta (si, avete letto bene). Splendido libro fotografico e acquisto obbligato per ogni vero fan della band.

Bellissimo libro fotografico sulla storia dei Verve degli anni '90. Ritrae i Verve dai primi anni fino al periodo di Urban Hymns, con immagini del famoso concerto all'Haigh Hall di Wigan, nel maggio 1998. Per chi è amante della band è ottimo.Arrivato in brevissimo tempo.

Meraviglioso! Un vero fan dei the verve non può non acquistare questo libro! Foto bellissime!Un vero capolavoro di Chris Floyd

must have for the verve fans
