Thanks to his biting, satirical, political and very funny verse, delivered in a unique rapid-fire performance style, he became a seminal influence on the punk movement.
His impact far-transcended that cultural moment though, and John became the world’s leading alternative literary figure, whose work is loved and recognised on a global scale. Today, John Cooper Clarke is as relevant and vibrant as ever, and his influence just as visible on pop culture.
With TV appearances on Have I Got News For You, Never Mind The Buzzcocks and Would I Lie To You, his influence can also be heard in the satirical and keen social observations of artists such as Plan B and the Arctic Monkeys.
Dr John Cooper Clarke has recently announced the first anthology of his work ‘Anthologia’. This one-off collection truly encompasses Cooper Clarke’s wicked humour, originality and his mastery of the spoken word in a career spanning five decades. “…One of Britain’s outstanding poets” - Sir Paul McCartney
