A Caffè ☕️Lattè 2-part Spotlight:

THE 100 ESSENTIAL

GLAM ROCK

SONGS

 

Glam rock’s golden period was the early to mid-1970s emanating from the British music scene. Ushered in by the likes of David Bowie, Marc Bolan, Slade, Gary Glitter, Lou Reed and Roxy Music, glitter and glam rock played with and defied the rules of fashion, sound, sexuality and genders. Caffè Lattè looks back on 100 of the essential examples of this genre.
