The 1980s saw Alice Cooper release arguably his most diverse collection of albums, ranging from new wave to metal to full-on radio-friendly rock. They weren't all commercially successful, but all are worth listening to and some are excellent.This book (which follows on from the author's acclaimed Alice Cooper In The '70s) features all new interview material by the author with 45 musicians and performers who worked with Alice over the decade. Many have never been interviewed before and they offer fascinating insight into working with Alice and each other. Key interviewees include Mike Pinera, Jan Uvena, John Nitzinger, Graham Shaw, Ken Mary, Kip Winger, Kane Roberts, John McCurry and Al Pitrelli. Consequently, the book includes a lot of new facts and information that should please fans. The author adds commentary and opinions on all of the songs from the era, Alice's film work and the five live tours. There is also an appendix on the album that could have been but never was. Alice 'contributes' from the contemporary press of the time are referenced, which became more loquacious as the decade goes on. Alice in the '80s, what a thrill ride that was! - Häftad, Engelska, 2026

When Black Sabbath parted ways with Ozzy in 1979, it could have all gone badly wrong for them. Instead, with Ronnie James Dio, fresh from Rainbow, they came back rejuvenised with a brace of albums which helped redefine rock and metal in the 80s. Two futher studio albums followed later, including one under their new moniker Heaven & Hell. Black Sabbath The Dio years looks at the three different Dio eras with every album and track put under the microscope, including all of the live albums and bonus tracks. The narrative of the band is often murky, especially in the year which led to the release of their debut Heaven And Hell. For the first time, this period is examined carefully to establish the sequence of events.Contributing to the book are three men who were involved in the production and engineering of the records- Joe Foglia, Mike Exeter and Wyn Davis. Each offers new insight into the working processes. Greg Hildebrandt also contributes the chilling story behind his painting, 'Mob Dream', which became the cover for Mob Rules. - Häftad, Engelska, 2024

Chris Sutton is one of the finest centre-forwards of his generation. He played for Norwich, Blackburn, Chelsea and Celtic for combined transfer fees of more than GBP 20million. His career is littered with prizes and controversy, from refusing to play for England and his disastrous season at Chelsea, to making history with Celtic and Blackburn. In his candid autobiography, "Paradise and Beyond", he lifts the lid on it all - the family torment, the gambling debts, the incident that led to him being arrested the night before his GBP 5million record transfer fee from Norwich to Blackburn and much more. He gives his honest assessment of managers he played under such as Glenn Hoddle, Kenny Dalglish, Martin O''Neill and Luca Vialli. Sutton also opens his heart on the truth behind his controversial departure from Celtic and how he holds Gordon Strachan responsible. This book is not to be missed. - Häftad, Engelska, 2021
