Exhaustive - and exhausting. Glam proper lasted just four years, but Reynolds wrings 650 pages out of the phenomenon by unearthing stylistic connections between the era's glittery mainstays (Marc Bolan, David Bowie) and other acts (Alice Cooper, Slade). A lengthy epilogue amusingly traces glam's echoes through 30-plus years of subsequent pop music.
