DESCRIPTION

ABOUT THE BOOK

This anthology documents what happened in the year 1994 when all record companies went on a signing frenzy, in their hope to duplicate, or ride on the runaway success of pop-rock band Eraserheads. It wasn’t until much, much later, in future decades, when their immense contribution to the local music industry would be recognized not just by the audience, but by their own peers, too.

It also documents who the major players/performers/bands were, and what the major venues and concerts were in the 1990s, and the environment or millieu where they lived and breathed music. – From the Preface
