Vintage Rock  |  Oct/Nov 2024
In our latest issue, as Stray Cats celebrate 45 years in music, we speak exclusively to drummer Slim Jim Phantom about the band’s incredible story as rockabilly revolutionaries.
Elsewhere, we meet Stax legend Steve Cropper as he returns with a brand new star-packed studio album and talk to Marshall Chess about the far-reaching legacy of rock’n’roll and blues label Chess Records.
We also look back at the mid-60s second coming of Little Richard and go behind the scenes of The T.A.M.I. Show, the superb big-screen live concert that included the likes of Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones and James Brown.
We also serve up features on cult rockabilly hero Charlie Feathers and interview Spanish rockin’ favourite Charlie Hightone. Our latest classic album is Brenda Lee’s eponymous second studio LP and we count down our Top 20 train songs.
