Product Description

Book Description

Described as candid, offbeat and intriguing by its publishers - this book, compiled by local authors, captures the vibe of a Nottingham we once knew.

In the early 80s, two teenage art students Paul Fillingham and Chris Richards travelled around Nottingham City centre with their cameras, notebooks and diaries, habitually capturing a vibrant slice of everyday life.

Twenty years later the pictures serve as a record of a time remembered fondly by some and unknown by those under the age of 20.

The collection of over 200 images documents some of the major changes which took place in Nottingham between 1980 and 1989.

Paul and Chris see this as an important era: "The 1980s saw the closure of many established businesses, the coming and going of youth fashions and trends, massive changes in technology, communications and industry, and the transformation of the young authors from students to working adults."

"It offers the opportunity to reflect upon an era which resides in our recent past, and which is yet far enough removed from present-day Nottingham to offer a valuable pictorial history that will doubtless provide much interest."

5.0 out of 5 stars what a year!!, 6 Dec 2007
I loved this book, I borrowed it from a friend and to my surprise, I was in it.....Yes I was a punk in the 80's with a mohican lots of piercings and a extreme obsession with Bauhaus...I miss those days.
I was also nice to see how Nottingham had changed since then all the shops and buildings that are now gone...

Excellent book...Truly recommend it if you were lucky enough to be growing up in the 80's and went to Rock City then.....

5.0 out of 5 stars Where am I?, 11 May 2008
By Mr. S. Swift "Caligula77" (Great Britain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Nottingham in the 80's was my playground. It was bright and technicolour and amazing. Spending every Friday/Saturday night at Rock City Futurist night, dancing in the lazers and dry ice. Taking most of the afternoon getting ready. During the week drinking downstairs at the Castle, trecking over to the Playhouse bar, going to Whispers, The Ad-lib club, Brownes wine bar. What amazes me about this book is how 'by gone' Nottingham looks. I am afflicted with nostalgia for those great times anyway, but this really sticks the knife in!! Good stuff.
