CP Lee

CP Lee is an author, broadcaster and lecturer from Manchester, England. His works include books about Bob Dylan, one of which, "Like The Night (Revisited)" focuses on the 'Judas' shout aimed at Dylan at his Manchester Free Trade Hall performance in 1966, which was the climax of Martin Scorsese's documentary of Dylan, "No Direction Home". Another book - Shake, Rattle & Rain - is adapted from his PhD on Manchester Music-Making.

"When We Were Thin" (published October 2007) is a personal memoir in which CP recounts how he produced one side of the first Factory Records release, ate muffins with Andy Warhol, drove a table with Wreckless Eric and was Elvis Costello for a day – and performed in the Folk and Beat Clubs of the 1960s and on through to the Punk explosion of 1977 and the emergence of Madchester.

When he was thin CP Lee was in a band Greasy Bear and after that he founded and fronted a band Alberto Y Lost Trios Paranoias with Jimmy Hibbert, Bruce Mitchell, Les Prior, Bob Harding, Simon White, Ray "Mongo" Hughes, Tony Bowers, John Scott, Captain Mog, et al.

Under his "real" name, Chris Lee, he is now a lecturer at Salford University.
