Vintage Rock  |  Jun/Jul 2022
In the latest Vintage Rock, as we prepare for the big screen event of the summer and Baz Luhrmann’s hotly-anticipated Elvis biopic, we take an in-depth look at the complex relationship between the King of Rock’n’Roll and his controversial manager Colonel Tom Parker.
We also tip our hat to the ground-breaking inventiveness of Les Paul as his trademark Gibson electric guitar celebrates its 70th anniversary and serve up unseen interviews with the legendary Hal Blaine and Chas Hodges.
Vintage Rock favourites Crazy Cavan And The Rhythm Rockers get the richly deserved classic album feature treatment for their 1975 debut studio LP Crazy Rhythm, and we pay tribute to cult hero and rock’n’roll pioneer Jack Scott.
Elsewhere, we count down the 10 hottest prospects in the rockin’ world right now and have must-read chats with Wild Records star Omar Romero and Chicago sensations The Knee-Hi’s.
Also this issue, we take a trip behind the scenes of Talking Pictures TV for a glimpse into their many music-related televisual treasures and meet KEiL-Records boss Tom Keil.
