Gonzo Weekly #255-6
THE FALL OF LOVE DOUBLE ISSUE
Tony Palmer, remembers when he first met John Lennon and talks about his
film The Beatles and WW2, John provides an epilogue to the Summer of Love plus
50 celebrations, Alan goes to the Southdowns Folk Festival and critiques The
Stone Tapes, Richard visits The Girl from the North Country, and Jeremy goes to
Soho Rising: The Muses Invade Manette Street with the Doctors of Madness and
also goes to see the Flamin' Groovies (Look, I spelled it right this
time).
Wooooot!
And there are radio shows from Mack Maloney, Strange Fruit, and Friday
Night Progressive. We also have columns from all sorts of folk including Roy
Weard, C J Stone, Mr Biffo, Neil Nixon and the irrepressible Corinna. There is
also a collection of more news, reviews, views, interviews and common planigales
who have cooked some stews (OK, nothing to do with small marsupials who have
been culinarily creative, but I got carried away with things that rhymed with
OOOOS) than you can shake a stick at. And the best part is IT's ABSOLUTELY
FREE!!!
