Description
Whatever Happened to the C86 Kids? An Indie Odyssey by Nige Tassell is a unique journey into the legacy and afterlives of the artists who featured on the legendary NME C86 tape. Released in 1986, the cassette collection of 22 independently signed guitar-based bands shaped music for years to come and defined a generation. Thirty-five years on, journalist Nige Tassell tracks down the class of C86, unearthing members of all twenty-two bands and sharing the stories, both tragic and uplifting, of these long-lost musicians. With warmth, compassion and humor, Tassell shares the tales of ambition, hope, varying degrees of talent and what happens after you give up on music. This book is an exploration of C86's wide-reaching and often surprising legacy, populated by a diverse range of individuals who have pursued careers in music, film, and other fields.
