Glitter Suits & Platform Boots Well, the name says it all doesn't it? Alwyn Turner's "homage to British pop music in the pre-punk 70s is a documentary, if you will a popumentary, of one of the most neglected periods of music history." In his "biased history of English Glam Rock", Steve Pond gives a flavour of how the Glam Rock movement started, grew and then died. As he says, to be Glam you had to be big loud, brash and above all: a star. If you weren't in the charts you weren't glam enough. Glam Rock Of The 70'sThis website is Paul Williams' tribute to the bands of the Glam Rock period in the UK. He says: "Glam rock's emergence into popular music couldn't have come at a better time. What rock needed was a back to basics, get dressed up, be freaky, 'Get Down And Get With It' approach. And thats what glam rock also known as glitter rock gave us." Glitzine Glitzine claims it is the number one on-line Glitter Magazine. Glitzine is dedicated to Glam/Sleaze/Punk rock. It says it "doesn't only focus on today but on yesterday and tomorrow as well." A History of Punk This is A History of Punk website. It is very American and heavy on words as opposed to pictures. But it is good material written in an enjoyable style. Names like Andy Warhol, Velvet Underground and Lou Reed abound. One story has The Velvet Underground being fired from the Cafe Bizarre in 1966. Lou Reed reminisced: "They said, 'One more song like that and you're fired'. So we played one more song like that and, sure enough, they fired us." The Women of 1970's Punk The only website dedicated to the women of 1970's punk rock says Rockin' Rina Gribovsky. Looks at American women primarily but a good feel for the era and there are complete chapters on the early UK punk scene. Search & Destroy Search & Destroy is the name of this punk rock & roll search engine.
