From the tail-end of the Seventies to the beginning of the Nineties, Barry Cain was a
music journalist, publicist and PR man. He truly lived the life. In this book, he gives an
insider’s account of the Eighties music scene, sharing his outrageous encounters with
rock stars of the time – warts and all.
It’s a rollercoaster ride of sex, drugs and rock’n’roll, containing in-depth interviews with
punk bands, new romantics, rock gods, soul legends and household names. Published in
magazines and newspapers such as Smash Hits, My Guy, Daily Star, Sounds, Record
Mirror, the London Evening News, the Daily Record and Flexipop, these astonishing
interviews have not been seen since.
