The London boys : David Bowie, Marc Bolan and the 60's teenage dream af Marc Burrows (Bog)

David Bowie, Marc Bolan and the 60s Teenage Dream

This book follows the British youth culture explosion through they eyes of two remarkable young men on the front lines of history. David Bowie and Marc Bolan spent the first part of their careers following remarkably similar paths. From the day they met in 1965, they would remain friends and rivals each watching closely and learning from the other. In the years before they launched an unbeatable run of era-defining glam rock masterpieces at the charts, they were both just another face on the scene, meeting for coffee in Soho, hanging out at happenings and jamming in parks. Here, they are our guides through the decade that changed everything, as the gloom of post-war London exploded into the technicolor dream of the swinging sixties, a revolution in music, fashion, art and sexuality. Part dual-biography, part social history, part musical celebration of an era, The London Boys follows the British youth culture explosion through eyes of two remarkable young men on the front lines of history.
