“As a journalist who interviewed many of the musicians and industry figures highlighted here, I appreciate how this book blends fact, storytelling, and joy. It distills an extraordinary era of music into something children can discover for the first time—while adults take a trip back to the ’80s and relish why these musicians and industry figures still matter today.”
