'Bakerloo Brown is carpet colour, corduroy colour, cow colour, fake tan. It's not chocolate square - there's something flavourless about it. Actually, it's earth colour.'
In Earthbound Paul Morley uses the Bakerloo line to tell the story of post-punk, the NME, his first Sony Walkman and the curious history of a little-known German group called 'Can', meditating on memory, music, taste, technology and the things that connect us.
