The twisted tale of glam rock

"With the help of copious examples, the book covers the style from the pre-glam British invasion of 1964-69 through the classical glam era (1970-1975); the metamorphosis into glam goth, glam metal, and glam new-romanticism (1976-1990); and the style's reemergence (1990-present). It provides a theoretical basis for musicians' attraction to this highly visual and theatrical form of pop music and sets glam in a historical context, following the format through MTV, videos, and vibrant stage and theatre presentations. Finally, the book explores the hybridization of glam with other styles, illustrating how the genre has progressively reemerged as a premier form of performance pop."--Publisher description.
