Description:
In the mid-1970s, New York City was a laboratory where all the major styles of modern music were reinvented-all at once, from one block to the next, by musicians who knew, admired, and borrowed from one another. Crime was everywhere, the government was broke, and the city’s infrastructure was collapsing. But rent was cheap, and the possibilities for musical exploration were limitless. But rent was cheap, and the possibilities for musical exploration were limitless.
Love Goes to Buildings on Fire is the first book to tell the full story of the era’s music scenes and the phenomenal and surprising ways they intersected.
Will Hermes was there and captured the creativity, drive, and full-out lust for life of the great New York musicians of those years, who knew that the music they were making would change the world.
Love Goes To Buildings on Fire also exists in French.
