Cheri Percy is a freelance music journalist and radio host based in the UK. She has pitched and produced features across prominent online sites including The Guardian, Noisey, Refinery29 and The Fader. She is also Host and Program Coordinator of The Other Womxn collective on Soho Radio.
The book gives ESG their rightful place as "funk punk pioneers" and
describes how their original beats paved the way for the modern
dance music of today.

A superb addition to the series. . . . Percy skilfully guides the
reader through the ESG story which is, unsurprisingly, often
exasperating. . . . This is also a story of survival, a belief in a
sound and ultimately a celebration of an album that ‘will sound out
for years to come–omnipresent, unstoppable, and finally making
sense to those that hear it.’ . . . A cautionary, compulsive tale,
brilliantly told.
