Notes:

Includes bibliographical references."Glam! traces Glam rock's arrival and heyday during the first half of the 1970s. Drawing on in-depth interviews with stars and musicians, producers adn photographers, stylists, writers and celebrity fans, it's as much irreverent celebration as cultural history. Richly illustrated with a wealth of evocative period material--band shots, record sleeves, posters, fan photos and the era's definitive outfits, magazines and assorted memorabilia--it tells the rise-to-fame stories of stars like Bowie, Elton John, Alice Cooper and many more. From its impetuous arrival to its tragic finale when glittering pop alchemists, Marc of T. Rex, died in a shocking car accident, this is the full, fast-moving story of Glam."--Back cover.
