Description
The '80s Hard Rock Explosion in All Its Glory The '80s hard rock explosion was a hedonistic and creative force that defined a spectacularly over-the-top decade. This era was marked by fist-pumping hits like Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It," Mötley Crüe's "Girls, Girls, Girls," and Guns N' Roses' "Welcome to the Jungle." The story of this iconic period is told through the words of the musicians, industry insiders, and others who lived it. From the early days of self-financed recordings and DIY concert productions to the multi-Platinum, MTV-powered glory years of stadium-shaking anthems and chart-topping power ballads, the '80s hard rock scene was a wild and unpredictable ride. This book captures the energy and excess of the hair metal years, revealing the stories behind the music and the people who made it happen. With its unique blend of music, history, and behind-the-scenes stories, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the '80s music scene.
