Whatever Happened to Slade? : When The Whole World Went Crazee
Slade - Book - by Daryl Easlea
(2023)
More
than simply the iconic group of the 1970s glam rock era, Slade's huge
popularity and the enduring levels of affection still exist. Although
the original quartet ceased working as a unit in 1992, Noddy Holder,
Dave Hill, Jim Lea and Don Powell remain household names. The first
serious biography of Slade since 1984, Slade: Nobody's Fools details the
complete story of this unique band, as well as the personal histories
of the four unique individuals who combined to turn Slade into a genuine
phenomenon.
Beginning
by exploring the background and influences that shaped the foursome,
the book charts their emergence from the 1960s beat boom, their initial
successes, the epoch-making glam heyday, Slade's attempts to crack
America and subsequent re-emergence as hard rocking heavyweights,
through to their final dissolution and post-Slade careers. Featuring new
interviews, Slade: Nobody's Fools represents the final word on a band
that won hearts and perforated eardrums across four incident-filled,
often ironically bittersweet decades.
