Alternative Top 50 is the first book of lyrics by TV Smith, lyricist and singer in the ground-breaking punk band The Adverts and solo singer-songwriter. The extensive foreword has been written by longtime fan Henry Rollins, member of Black Flag and The Rollins Band, actor, and writer.

This visually stunning boxed set edition is limited to only 500 copies. Each set contains a hardback book and an exclusive 10" vinyl record especially recorded by TV Smith and Henry Rollins for this limited edition.

I’m always being asked it: what comes first, the words or the music? In fact they come together, mysteriously and intricately intertwined, an unholy alliance of message and melody. So what happens when you pick them apart? There are the words, all naked without the music to disguise their true form. Released from the chains of verse-chorus-bridge they run free across the page, unexpected nuance and meaning exposed, shouting loud and proud their new purpose - no longer are we song, now we are poetry. -TV Smith
