I know that I say it every week, but it never ceases to amaze me how such a tiny band of brothers and sisters, the vast majority of whom are unpaid, manages to put out a full length magazine of such like to once again publicly thank my editorial quality every single week of the year. Before team particularly Doug, John, Corinna and I continue with this week’s musings I would Jessica, although it really goes against the 4 grain to single anyone out of such a hard who read this magazine. Some of you will, working and productive team. no doubt, be shocked by this revelation. DeMille is a fairly gung ho Republican One of my favourite authors is an American whose ethos would seem to be quite far thriller writer called Nelson DeMille who removed from the anarchist ethos of what I may not be familiar to many of the people write for this magazine, and indeed, how I live my life. But he does write cracking stories! Probably my favourite of his books is one called Word of Honour which tells a very interesting and morally intriguing tale. The main protagonist is a wealthy businessman who, at some time during the late 1980s, is on his way to work.

  • ADAM and the ANTS Adam and the Ants Were Formed in 1977 in London, England
    ADAM AND THE ANTS Adam and the Ants were formed in 1977 in London, England. They existed in two incarnations. One of which lasted from 1977 until 1982 known as The Ants. This was considered their Punk era. The second incarnation known as Adam and the Ants also featured Adam Ant on vocals, but the rest of the band changed quite frequently. This would mark their shift to new wave/post-punk. They would release ten studio albums and twenty-five singles. Their hits include Stand and Deliver, Antmusic, Antrap, Prince Charming, and Kings of the Wild Frontier. A large part of their identity was the uniform Adam Ant wore on stage that consisted of blue and gold material as well as his sophisticated and dramatic stage presence. Click the band name above. ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN Formed in Liverpool, England in 1978 post-punk/new wave band Echo and the Bunnymen consisted of Ian McCulloch (vocals, guitar), Will Sergeant (guitar), Les Pattinson (bass), and Pete de Freitas (drums). They produced thirteen studio albums and thirty singles. Their debut album Crocodiles would make it to the top twenty list in the UK. Some of their hits include Killing Moon, Bring on the Dancing Horses, The Cutter, Rescue, Back of Love, and Lips Like Sugar. A very large part of their identity was silohuettes. Their music videos and album covers often included silohuettes of the band. They also have somewhat dark undertones to their music that are conveyed through the design. Click the band name above. THE CLASH Formed in London, England in 1976, The Clash were a punk rock group consisting of Joe Strummer (vocals, guitar), Mick Jones (vocals, guitar), Paul Simonon (bass), and Topper Headon (drums).

  • A Band Together. but Who Knew We'd Find As Durable an Application Of
    o R M D EVERY MUSICIAN KNOWS IT’s THE RHYTHM SECTION THAT HOLDS a band together. But who knew we’d find as durable an application of that maxim as the one exemplified by the history of Fleetwood Mac? & Over the last thirty years, Fleetwood Mac has comprised fifteen musicians shuffled through six major lineups, resulting in endless tin- kerings with tone and genre. Yet the two members to survive it all rarely write tunes and never front the recordings. They’re the beat- keepers - drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John Me Vie. The fact that a rhythm section could sustain a band through thirty years seems all the more amazing considering the traumatic histories of the band’s shifting array o f stage-front stars. Together, their personal lives have given rock one of its most elaborate and juicy plotlines.
