About this product

Product Information

He was the glamourpuss of glamourpusses, the campest boy in town. He formed, with Midge Ure, Visage, which became one of the biggest bands of the time, selling millions of records and gaining tabloid notoriety. This work recounts the rise and fall of the Blitz Kid himself and recounts from the epicentre the excess of the early eighties: the clubs, the people, the music, the money, his time spent recovering in Ibiza and India, the subsequent steady decline into cocaine and heroin abuse and his rise back to sanity. Steve recounts how he lost all his possessions in a house fire and days later learned of the death of his close friend Michael Hutchence. Within a couple of years Paula Yates had also committed suicide and Strange had ended up back in South Wales, homeless, mentally unstable and facing a court order for shoplifting. Somehow he managed to pull himself back from the brink.

  • Interesting tale of 1980's pop

    If you're interested in 1980's punk, New Romantics, New Wave, synthpop, this is for you. Also full of behind the scenes stories of the pop World of the era. And yet another cautionary story of the dangers of illegal drugs (I wish people would read these and listen). We lose so many good and talented people because of drugs - they most likely shortened Steve Stranges life also, You can now get this book for very affordable price - good value for your € (or £ or $). I recommend.
