Description
According to Don Airey, who writes this book's foreword, it was Cozy Powell who initially suggested the idea for what became the first "Monsters Of Rock Festival" in 1980.
Held at Donington Park motor circuit it was the first major event that focused on one genre. Such an approach had generally up to then, been alien to promoters. As it turned out, it proved to be a winning formula and the annual festival grew into an institution.
Down To Donington looks back at this monumental event. It explores behind the scenes, as well as the day in question, and even the aftermath.Book Information
