Folk we haven’t spoken to for years have come out of the woodwork to congratulate us on the first issue and it’s great to be back in touch with them all. We were also thrilled by how many of our loyal Rock Candy Records customers have taken the plunge and bought the magazine. So far, feedback has been very heart-warming. Of course, there are also plenty of people who’ve joined us for the first time. Thank you – and a big, hearty welcome to a place where the rock never stops. FIRST AND foremost, Rock Candy Mag is where you can read Kerrang! writers who were there at the time connecting you to the bands and artists you grew up with – or maybe have only recently discovered. It’s about getting back to those glory days and celebrating the music we love as a force to be reckoned with. This new issue is crammed with great features and articles that are guaranteed to warm the cockles of any classic rock fan’s heart. AS YOU’LL have noticed, we’ve got an Iron Maiden cover – a fantastic piece of art featuring Bruce Dickinson in full flight – and a feature written by our editor Howard Johnson, who was with the band on that incredible tour of Poland in 1984. It’s a fascinating read. And we’re very proud of our mammoth 10-page UFO feature focussing on their early, best, and certainly most prolific period. We also know you’re going to enjoy Dave Reynolds’ feature on Angel, surely one of the most criminally overlooked bands of all time. They looked incredible – and had one of the most amazing band logos of all time. It was technically labelled an ambigram, meaning it reads the same even if you look at it upside down! You learn something new every day! Then there’s John Sykes giving us the skinny on the multi-gazillion selling Whitesnake album ‘1987’. And although there’s no Krokus in this issue – more’s the pity – there are still tons of fascinating pieces all over the place, and more great shots of acts dressed in their best vintage togs. HAVE YOU checked out the Rock Candy Magazine Facebook page yet? Ably overseen by heavy-duty rock fan John Nicholson, who loves showing us what he’s got in his massive vinyl collection, it’s the perfect place to discuss every act that ever played the Monsters Of Rock or the finer points of fretboard wizardry.
