Featuring many rock bands the author went to see back then, the book gives his retrospective on how different the rock music scene was almost five decades ago, how he got in to it and the bands he went to see.
Whether you were around back then and would like to reminisce or a rock music fan of today’s age, this free ebook should provide you with an interesting read.
Read about the author’s introduction to rock music in the late 1970s on hearing All the World’s a Stage by Rush and going to see them shortly afterwards.
Then how that experience got him hooked on the genre and the then emergence of what would become tagged as the New Wave of British Heavy Metal – a hook which remains to this day – buying as many albums and going to as many concerts as finance allowed.
Includes reminiscences of going to see the likes of Rush, Blue Oyster Cult, Def Leppard. AC/CD, Budgie, Kiss, Rainbow, Whitesnake, Scorpions, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Judas Priest, Gillan, Hawkwind, UFO, Sammy Hagar and many others.
Includes many photographs form those old concert tour programmes and an insight in to how different concert going experience was much different in the 1970s and 1980s to what it is today.
The author said: “It was a huge surprise to find that box of old tour programmes. I’d forgotten all about them. I’m sure I had more from back then though many will have been lost over the years.
