Vintage Rock | Apr/May 2025
In our latest issue, we reveal all about Elvis Presley’s 1960 make-or-break comeback album after serving in the US Army, the aptly-titled Elvis Is Back!
Elsewhere, we discover how Chuck Berry got his motor running with debut single Maybellene and, five years after his passing, we look at the far-reaching legacy of the Georgia Peach, Little Richard. There’s also a must-read deep dive into the complete works of Jerry Lee Lewis, where we highlight The Killer’s finest singles, albums, appearances on the big screen and much more. We also take a celluloid detour to remember 1955’s Blackboard Jungle, the hugely controversial Bill Haley-soundtracked movie that remains as viscerally shocking today as it was to audiences 70 years ago.
We talk to rockabilly guitarist Darrel Higham about Gretsch’s impact on rock’n’roll, take a walk on the wild side with R&B bad boy Larry Williams and retell the tragic life story of Frankie Lymon.
Rockin’ scene mainstay Alan O’Donnell reveals why he’s returning as Al Michaels for a new solo project while The Dead Shout serve up their gumbo of rockabilly, psychobilly and country.
Our latest classic album is Champion Jack Dupree’s Blues From The Gutter and we count down the Top 20 finest British rock’n’roll singles.
