Q

The 80s Issue

Forget those dreadful 'I Love the 80s' TV shows, the REAL 80s has nothing to do with the slop traditionally belched out during those Sunday evening light entertainment slots. Possibly the most unfairly maligned of all musical decades, this month Q Magazine jumps in to kick those 80s stereotypes clean away.

This is Q's 80s - an era that gave rise to fertile alternative scenes on both sides of the Atlantic, witnessed the rise of hip hop, birthed a new breed of creatively engaged rock superstar, and much more besides. Get the full story of Madonna's virgin years, her rise from New York dustbins to ruling the world. The heroin scandal behind self-destructive gender bending pop icon, Boy George, and the making of U2's The Joshua Tree.

Plus, the great rock 'n' roll swindle – in the age of internet-aided Arctic Monkeys-style overnight music phenomenons, see just what happens when Q launches a FAKE band on My Space......
