If the 1970s was a decade of heedless optimism, then Studio 54 was its glittering epicenter. During its reign as New York's number one hot spot to see and be seen, it was the place where paparazzi mingled with celebrity, where high-brow danced with low-brow, where pop art and fine art talked into the wee hours of the morning. In this stunning and evocative volume, renowned Italian photographer Felice Quinto captures the energy, the giddiness, the chaos, and the craziness of the place Vanity Fair named "the greates club of all time."

Consistently fascinating. -- New York Post
The first coffee-table book devoted to the era's most famous and debauched disco. -- Time
The photographs of Felice Quinto...are so frothily impromptu that they give paparazzi a good name. -- Los Angeles Times

Memories of a bygone Club,
By blondeguy10 "blondeguy10" (South Africa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Studio 54: The Legend (Paperback)
I was far to young to really appreciate the magic that was Studio 54 - yes the legendary nightclub was even known on these far distant shores. So this beautiful book of photographs is a way to remember and revel in those carefree heady days. Almost every big celebrity of the time paid a visit to the club and they are all captured here in beautiful black and white photographs. Impressive. A great coffee table book.

Nice pocket-book,
By rrrrudi "rudi" (Netherlands) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Studio 54: The Legend (Paperback)
The book looks like a nice picturebook, but it's not realy a documentary with a lot of background stories (which I hoped it would be).
