Vintage Rock | Spring 2013
Gene Vincent is the issue’s cover star: if you’re a fan of rock’n’roll triumphs and tragedies (if you’re not, we’d like a medical professional to check your vital signs) then our cover story divulges the man’s innate chaos and charisma. It also celebrates the man’s electrifying music.
The rest of the issue boasts a veritable smorgabord of high-octane artists that, according to established Magazine Safety Guidelines, should normally be kept apart; including Big Joe Turner, Freddy Cannon and Lonnie Donegan.
And let’s not even get started regarding the special features on hillbilly boogie, french rock’n’roll and Elvis Presley’s world-changing clothes, otherwise we’ll be hear until Doomsday. And your time would be better spent actually reading the issue rather then us teasing you with all this kickass content.
