Publisher Description
The 2015 Martin Popoff 19-page eBook about the making of Quartz’ 1980 album Stand Up And Fight.
Birmingham bashers Quartz were long in the tooth as they kerrang’ed their way into the NWOBHM with their MCA-issued classic Stand Up And Fight (see Mick Hopkins’ tale about opening for the Beatles!). But all of that experience as friends of Black Sabbath through the ’70s stood them well as they crafted their magnificent second studio record, a gorgeously recorded suite of songs that surely should have made the band stadium rock stars. Come hear the story of opportunities missed and misfortune heaped, from two original members, as we celebrate a record that the author steadfastly considers one of the three greatest albums from the entire NWOBHM.
