Behind the Music Season 1 Episode 139 Billy Idol 1997
6.4/10 by 9 users
Right from the start, Billy Idol has been a rebel with a cause and a yell. From his early days running with the likes of the Clash and the Sex Pistols in London's punk scene, to his years as the most famous face in rock, he has become as much an icon as an idol. This episode will tell Billy's story in his own words, chronicling his rise from the son of a middle-class traveling salesman to being one of the most identifiable symbols of rock in the 1980s. Behind the hair, the sneer and the leather was a man the public didn't know, a smart, thoughtful artist who has demonstrated a miraculous ability to overcome adversity.
