Bolstered by dozens of new images and new insights from those who were there, this collection of over 200 posters - featuring iconic images of timeless artists like Bowie, Blondie, Ramones, The Damned, Adam Ant, Motörhead, Suicide, Iggy Pop, Tom Robinson Band and Lou Reed - celebrates a decade's music and design.
Drawing on scores of personal interviews with stars, artists, photographers and fly-posting mafiosi, Alwyn Turner and Roger Crimlis tell the stories behind the pictures from a golden age of rock & roll. Adam Ant - eminently qualified as both art student and popstar - has provided a brand new and insightful foreword to this edition.
