Pin-Ups 1972 : Third Generation Rock 'n' Roll
1972 - Book - by Peter Stanfield
(2022)
Elvis,
Eddie, Chuck, Gene, Buddy and Little Richard were the original rockers.
Dylan, The Beatles, The Stones and The Who formed rock's second coming.
As the 1960s turned into the 1970s, the crucial question was who would
lead rock 'n' roll's third generation?Pin-Ups 1972 tracks the London
music scene during this pivotal year, all Soho sleaze, neon, grease and
leather.
It
begins with the dissolution of the underground and the chart success of
Marc Bolan. T. Rextasy formed the backdrop to Lou Reed and Iggy Pop's
British exile and their collaborations with David Bowie.
This
was the year Bowie became a star and redefined the teenage wasteland.
In his wake followed Roxy Music and the New York Dolls, future tense
rock 'n' roll revivalists. Bowie, Bolan, Iggy, Lou, Roxy and the Dolls -
pin-ups for a new generation.
