Description
Pin-Ups 1972: A Chronicle of London's Rock Scene in 1972 In 1972, the London music scene was abuzz with change. As the underground movement dissipated, chart success and new stars emerged. This book explores the pivotal year that defined rock 'n' roll's third generation. The story begins with Marc Bolan's rise to fame, followed by the formation of T. Rex and Lou Reed's British exile. David Bowie's star was on the rise, redefining the teenage wasteland. The New York Dolls, Roxy Music, and Iggy Pop all played a part in shaping the future of rock 'n' roll. This book delves into the Soho sleaze, neon, grease, and leather that defined the era. Featuring key figures from the London music scene, Pin-Ups 1972 offers a unique insight into the year that marked a turning point for rock 'n' roll.
