I WANT MY MTV chronicles MTV as I, and many others, would like to remember it: a lot of fun when it first came on the scene and a joy to watch every day, "Splendid. I Want My MTV is compulsively entertaining, hugely edifying, and occasionally profound." - TIME, "MTV changed America and this book will change how you think about MTV. It's a fascinating look deep inside how MTV became what it was from the mouths of those who made it. Everyone who loved or hated MTV will love this story filled with fights, drugs, sex and music." -Toure, author of Who's Afraid of Post-Blackness?, "Hilarious. One of my favorite books of the year. I guarantee you'll have a tough time putting it down." - USAToday, "Insiders are already buzzing about the book, which does for music television what Fredric Dannen's Hit Men did for indie promotion." -HITS, "It's part voyeurism, part nostalgia, part social commentary - the perfect pulp non-fiction read for the cooling months ahead." -Modern Tonic, "Insiders are already buzzing about the book, which does for music television what Fredric Dannen's Hit Men did for indie promotion." -HITS , "Hilarious. One of my favorite books of the year. I guarantee you'll have a tough time putting it down." - USA Today, Marks and Tannenbaum make business meetings sound as fascinating as UFC Fighting, with anecdote upon anecdote about models, midgets, and coke-fueled mayhem., A rip-roaring, hilarious tribute to the cable channel that changed pop culture. A wonderfully entertaining and enlightening history, a magnificently enjoyable read., This colorful oral history of MTV's early years doesn't pull punches or waste time. A relentlessly entertaining book, an endlessly quotable volume., "It reminded me of those long days watching MTV, back when it still played videos...riveting." - New York Times, Hilarious, with behind-the-scenes dirt on hundreds of videos. I guarantee you''ll have a tough time putting it down., Riotous and irreverent. Crack it open to almost any page and you''re guaranteed a giggle. Every gaffe, scandal, and sexual innuendo comes in for hilarious scrutiny., "Wildly entertaining. Music and culture fans of a certain age you will want this book." - Washington Post, "Riotous and irreverent. Crack it open to almost any page and you're guaranteed a giggle. Every gaffe, scandal, and sexual innuendo comes in for hilarious scrutiny." - New York Daily News, Hilarious. One of my favorite books of the year. I guarantee you'll have a tough time putting it down., " I Want My MTV is the definitively funny-yet loving-chronicle of music video''s golden age: the hopes, the dreams, the drugs, the hair, the legacy of Tawny Kitaen. And for gossip, it''s packed tighter than one of Heart''s spandex bustiers." -Rob Sheffield, author of the national bestseller Love is a Mix Tape and Talking to Girls About Duran Duran, "Before Google and before Apple, MTV was the one post-60s American enterprise that really transformed the culture. And now we have this definitive, riveting, revealing, amazingly well-reported insiders'' account of how an improbable group of visionaries made it up as they went along.

It''s also a thoughtful and astonishingly well-researched historical document, of course, but mostly it''s just a total gas. It''s all in here, folks! Girls in cages! TV executives on blow! Dudes in eyeliner! Chicks with guitars! Pyrotechnics, consumerism, fame, destruction and shamelessness! Anyone who came of age during the glory days of MTV will be-page by page-steadily transported right back to your boyfriend''s parent''s wood-paneled den, to savor once more the life-changing lessons of decadence and magic we learned from cable TV." -Elizabeth Gilbert, bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love and Committed, " I Want My MTV is such a big, wild joyride of book, made to be read with glee and nostalgia and marvel.

Synopsis
Remember When All You Wanted Was Your MTV? The perfect gift for the music fan or child of the eighties in your life. Named One of the Best Books of 2011 by NPR - Spin - USA Today - CNBC - Pitchfork - The Onion - The Atlantic - The Huffington Post - VEVO - The Boston Globe - The San Francisco Chronicle Remember the first time you saw Michael Jackson dance with zombies in "Thriller"? Diamond Dave karate kick with Van Halen in "Jump"? Tawny Kitaen turning cartwheels on a Jaguar to Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again"? The Beastie Boys spray beer in "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party)"? Axl Rose step off the bus in "Welcome to the Jungle"? It was a pretty radical idea-a channel for teenagers, showing nothing but music videos. It was such a radical idea that almost no one thought it would actually succeed, much less become a force in the worlds of music, television, film, fashion, sports, and even politics. But it did work. MTV became more than anyone had ever imagined. I Want My MTV tells the story of the first decade of MTV, the golden era when MTV's programming was all videos, all the time, and kids watched religiously to see their favorite bands, learn about new music, and have something to talk about at parties. From its start in 1981 with a small cache of videos by mostly unknown British new wave acts to the launch of the reality-television craze with The Real World in 1992, MTV grew into a tastemaker, a career maker, and a mammoth business. Featuring interviews with nearly four hundred artists, directors, VJs, and television and music executives, I Want My MTV is a testament to the channel that changed popular culture forever., Remember When All You Wanted Was Your MTV?The perfect gift for the music fan or child of the eighties in your life.
