Subject: RE: Inside the music magazines From: GUEST, Paul Slade Date: 31 Oct 17 - 06:32 AM https://www.amazon.co.uk/History-NME-Worlds-Famous-Magazine/dp/1907554483/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1509449237&sr=1-1&keywo Pat Long's history of the NME is the closest book I know giving what you're after. That's the Amazon UK link to its page above. BBC Four covered the same subject in a TV documentary a few years back, but I'm having no luck finding that on YouTube. |

Subject: RE: Inside the music magazines From: GUEST,lefthanded guitar Date: 30 Oct 17 - 07:25 PM I m not sure this will provide info regarding working at the magazine; but "Fifty years of Rolling Stone," 2017 released- should be fascinating for the interviews and photos alone. (I wish I could throw more light on the subject, since I worked at that very publication, for a short time, round the early 80's . I don t remember much else other than they were quite professional in the offices, but and there was this elegant white spiral staircase that ran between floors. I have never before or since so enjoyed running up and down stairs. |
Subject: RE: Inside the music magazines From: Jack Campin Date: 30 Oct 17 - 07:00 PM Tony Parsons and Julie Burchill have both been prolifically autobiographical. I'd rather dunk my head in a bucket of cold sick than read a whole book by either of them. |
Subject: Inside the music magazines From: Speedwell Date: 30 Oct 17 - 04:51 AM I would be most grateful if any Mudcatters could recommend me books (either factual/biographies or novels,) concerning the music press/magazine industry. I?m looking for something which portrays working life at publications like Melody Maker, NME etc from the inside (1960s onwards) ? day to day goings-on. Many thanks in advance for your suggestions. |
