Welcome to Litsy!

A rock history of Glam rather than a music or style guide but still great fun. Proof reading & editing are a bit dodgy. A big oversight in not even mentioning Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel!
I was inspired to fill out some gaps in my record collection. Sweet, Slade & Ronson neatly fit the Glam bill; Alice Cooper is debatable, but Marc Bolan does contribute some guitar. Dusty is random, but it was on offer & I've intended to get it, like, forever!

Well, I couldn't not get the latest edition of Mojo when it has the Starman on the cover and a 15-track CD of Glam Nuggets! 🌟⚡🌟

"[Bobby] Graham had started out as Joe Meek's in-house drummer before joining Joe Brown & The Bruvvers. He was still with The Bruvvers when Brian Epstein approached him during the autumn of 1962 with an offer to replace Pete Best in The Beatles. Graham declined the invitation...because he couldn't see the point in quitting an established act for one he'd never heard of." - Pocket Guide To Glam Rock
I know hindsight is 20/20, but still ???‍♂️

Switching up the mood from glum to glam!⚡I think I'm going to breeze through this 😁

Whoop, whoop! I won a free book from the Library Thing Early Reviewers program 😁👨🏼‍🎤🎸
Glam Rock is one of my favourite genres, and definitely the sound of my childhood. Obviously Bowie is still hugely important for me, even if he rapidly transcended Glam. Marc Bolan is another hero, and both figure prominently in this rock history.
I've scanned a few pages, and the proof reading seems like it could have been better, but I'm still excited 👇🏼
