In this episode we're joined by author Nick Griffiths, whose new book DeadStar: Who the Hell Was Garth Tyson? was released January 2022. We also discuss some of our favorite music books, fiction and non-fiction, that we've read in recent years.
About DeadStar:
Garth Tyson wanted to be the next David Bowie. He fell short. Waaaay short. Burnt out, he fled the stage at Glastonbury '85, having been pelted with mud, and was never seen again. Decades after Garth's disappearance, former bandmates, friends, relatives, lovers, music-biz execs and two fans (you try finding more) reunite to tell Garth's compelling, tragicomic tale.
