Groovy Little Hippie Pad: Terri Hooley's Belfast Adventure | A Love Letter to Music
Terri Hooley's Groovy Little Hippie Pad is a captivating memoir that chronicles the life and times of the legendary Belfast record label owner and music enthusiast. From humble beginnings in a small record shop, Hooley became a key figure in the Northern Irish music scene. His label, Good Vibrations, played a pivotal role in launching the careers of iconic bands like The Undertones and Stiff Little Fingers, and his passion for music helped to shape the cultural landscape of Belfast during the troubled 1970s.
In Groovy Little Hippie Pad, Hooley shares his memories of those heady days with warmth, wit, and a deep love for music. He writes about the early days of Good Vibrations, when he would scour the streets of Belfast for new talent, and the label's rise to prominence in the punk and new wave era. He also recounts his experiences of the Troubles, and how music provided a much-needed escape from the violence and division that plagued the city.
