Best Answer

Glam refers to the appearance of the musicians, who are wearing face makeup, and may be wearing flashy clothes. Sometimes they appeared androgynous, either feminine or masculine or both. Glam doesn't refer to the actual music but how it was presented by the group, and was part of the group's image, concocted to sell records.
