Wham! George & Me
Celebrate 40 Years of Wham! with the Sunday Times Bestseller
(Author) Andrew Ridgeley1974, Watford, and two teenagers, Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou (George Michael) and Andrew John Ridgeley, meet for the first time. It isn't football or fashion or girls that bring them together (actually, girls: yes). Instead, they soon discover that they are both mad about music. Together they set out to follow an impossible dream, rooted in their shared love of records, the artists that made them and the sheer joy of pop. They didn't know it then but they were taking their first steps towards forming Wham! - soon to become the biggest band in the world. Now, for the very first time, Andrew Ridgeley tells that story.
