Out now on my Substack (link in profile): In 84, the bands I helped to break were getting bigger and more demanding. In 82, Boy George was easily accessible - but by 84, if you wanted Culture Club, you got Roy Hay…

After Marilyn made the charts in 83, there were a couple of Blitz Kids who went in a very different direction and launched a fetish night which I was at the heart of. I wish this was a photo of me but alas not. Free to read - link in profile.

New Substack out now (link in profile): Spandau vs Duran was one of the big pop rivalries of the 80s. But who got to No 1 first? And which single do you remember the most? #80smusic #duranduran #spandauballet

Madness' single of the week 'My Girl' reviewed by Betty Page in Sounds 22nd. December 1979. @ @MadnessNews @IDigStories

@SoundsClips @MadnessNews I think this might be my debut singles review for Sounds.

@peterjohncox Now I’m worried about what you’re apologising for!

@IDigStories Thinking about it - you’re in the book, unnamed. 🙄 Apologies for that..! ❤️

I’m excited to announce the book - and acoustic EP - to accompany my 2026 ‘spoken word’ dates. It’s a beautiful thing, if I say so myself! It will be published in the spring, but you can order your copy now, if you fancy.. link below. I thank you.. 🙏🏻 awaywithmedia.com/buy-books/ente…

"'Little girls kept shouting out during pieces like Night Porter. Once that happens it ruins the whole gig.' I felt like telling them to lighten up. A piece? You’re not classical musicians. Lap it up." @IDigStories on Japan and the art of ending parties. beverleyglick.substack.com/p/skilled-at-t…

Out now on my Substack (link in profile - free to subscribe) - Japan make their last stand at the height of their popularity.

I observed fame doing strange and unpleasant things to many sweet people, none more so than Marc Almond. Which is why I’m happy he’s still going strong after a tough time post Tainted Love. Out now on Substack - link in profile. Free to subscribe. #MarcAlmond #SoftCell #80smusic

So you fly to NY to interview Soft Cell, get photographed by a foot fetishist and seriously consider becoming an apprentice to Manhattan’s best known dominatrix. It’s all in a day’s play for Betty… Link in profile…

Betty Page's best yet. Hedonism in New York with Soft Cell .. Have you seen any of these Gary? I think you may enjoy them. @CrowleyOnAir @IDigStories @beverleyglick/note/c-184438509?r=293r7s" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@beverleyglick…
