Glam wasn't only for bands. There were always a few artists that made a solo career of being the object that was important. One of those was Alvin Stardust. Dressed in a full black leather outfit with massive sidebums and Rock 'n' Roll quiff he gave us some of the mid 70s trademarks in glam.
The other one I will remember is Gary Glitter (though he was imprisoned for possession of child pornography at the end of the last century). I still remember him in his glam outfit and his plateau shoes. Nothing but straight rhythm I fell in love more than 40 years ago.
This will please George Walter. He is a huge fan!
AntwortenLöschenYou're damned right there, CC. My Coo Ca Choo is still one of all-time favourite songs.
