Vintage Rock  |  Feb/Mar 2025
In our latest issue, to mark what would have been his 90th birthday, we celebrate the legacy of the ultimate rock’n’roll wild man, Gene Vincent, with the help of his daughter Melody Craddock.
Elsewhere, five years on from his passing, Vintage Rock looks back on the enormous contribution that Cavan Grogan made to the rockin’ scene as frontman of the Rhythm Rockers.
There’s also a deep dive into the career of the King of Rockabilly, Carl Perkins, and we meet John Lennon’s ex-girlfriend May Pang who reveals the wild tale behind the former Beatle’s Rock ‘n’ Roll covers album.
We also serve up features on cult Brit vocalist Terry Dene and reveal what’s on the horizon for music lovers in 2025 in our Year Ahead feature. On the new talent front, we chat to rising Aussie star Kid James and Irish fourpiece Alan Power & The Aftershocks.
Fuzzed-up country rockers Jenny Don’t And The Spurs tell us why they can’t get enough of life on the road and we also profile the extravagant talents of a former Las Vegas fixture, the inimitable Wayne Cochran.
Our latest classic album is Howlin’ Wolf’s Moanin’ In The Moonlight and we count down our Top 20 Elvis movie deep cuts.
