Thompson Twin: An '80s Memoir by Michael White
In 1982, a week after graduating, Michael White and his fiancee Jan joined the Thompson Twins pop group as they stood on the brink of international fame. But what should have been a fairytale success turned sour when she fell in love with the band's manager and then suffered a nervous breakdown. This is the story of how Michael transformed from an Essex schoolboy-with-guitar into a member of one of the most successful bands of the early 1980s. It is also an insider's tale of life in a pop group and a memoir of the decade that gave us the Filofax, power suits and Reaganomics.
