Electric Dreams is the definitive history of the hugely influential
bands The Human League and Heaven 17, from Sheffield beginnings to
world-renowned synth-pop pioneers. The book draws on first-hand
interviews with band members, ex-band members, management,
producers, friends and other musicians, including Phil Oakey,
Martyn Ware, Ian Marsh, Gary Numan and Martin Rushent. Electric
Dreams will take you back to a time when completely new sounds were
being invented, when the possibilities presented by affordable new
technology meant that musically inquisitive, but technically
untrained, pop fans could make music in the real spirit of punk.
This was no three-chord wonder; this was a one-fingered revolution.
