From the rebellious rock'n'roll attitude of Billy Fury to the theatrical flamboyance of Boy George; from the legendary "Mersey Beat" of the Beatles to the "Girl Power" of the Spice Girls, the British popular music scene has influenced generations, inspiring fashions and shaping youth culture both at home and abroad. This book encapsulates the vibrant energy of many of the best-loved artists from the 1950s to the late 1990s. Illustrated with 60 photographs, it presents an entertaining and reminiscent glimpse at the hedonistic and often outrageous world of pop music.
