A PLAYGROUND OF BROKEN HEARTS : The Progressive Rock Revival 1984 To 1989
Prog Rock Revival 1984-1989 - Book - by Andrew Wild
(2025)
Following Wild’s acclaimed 2024 book A Mirror Of Broken Dreams – The Progressive Rock Revival 1981 To 1983, A Playground Of Broken Hearts is the second of two books which provide the definitive account of the intertwined stories of the six bands which led the progressive rock revival: Marillion, IQ, Pallas, Pendragon, Solstice and Twelfth Night. For A Playground Of Broken Hearts, Wild interviewed over 80 musicians and other participants in the 1980s progressive rock scene.
The book also includes in-depth profiles of many of the other bands involved in the era: Abel Ganz, Airbridge, Comedy Of Errors, Electric Gypsy, Galahad, Haze, It Bites, Jadis, Janysium, Lahost, The Lens, Liaison, Multi Story, No-Man, Pride Of Passion, Quasar, Tamarisk, Trilogy and Twice Bitten. The book features over 300 photographs and illustrations, many of which have either been previously unpublished or are very rare, and a foreword by Prog magazine editor Jerry Ewing.
