Nostalgia for the 80s: Lifestyle, pop music, music videos – A look behind the scenes, then and now
As the presenter of the still-unforgettable programmes “P. I. T.”, “Peter’s Pop Show” and, above all, the legendary music show “Formel Eins”, Peter Illmann shaped an entire generation. Alongside Gottschalk, Illmann was THE voice of the 1980s and, with catchphrases such as “I’m ready for anything, but good for nothing”, established an incomparably warm rapport with his audience. In this book, Peter Illmann not only reflects on his own life, but also presents previously unknown stories from the media world – including anecdotes from the celebrity scene. He examines the societal, social, political and technological developments of that era, contrasting them with later developments, scrutinising them critically and evaluating them in his own unique style.
