(4.5*) In a year in which music—more than any art form (sorry, books!)—kept me sane, this book is worthy of (almost) all the stars Goodreads allows.
Informative and entertaining, a testament to the best decade in music.

Really enjoyed this an oral history of the new romantics ranging from 1975-1985 and gives an insight to how it developed on from the punk movement of the mid 1970's to 1977 expression of dress sense and developing different sounds. the author portrays this in a yearly chapter so you can see the development of the bands which came.
