An interesting non- #vinyl find today.
This is a ROLLING STONE magazine from January 21st, 1982 (back when the magazine was actually cool and people still gave a shit).
About six weeks after this hit the stand, John was dead.
I always like going through ANY old magazine, particularly #music and #popculture ones.
The ads are always hilarious, and it’s always interesting to read reviews of records that were new at the time, that are now almost 45 years old.
Full page movie ads, cigarette ads… a four star review of a Dianna Ross album? CMON MAN.
That shit is gold.
Look at all the joy in John’s face, huh?
He looks happy.
Dude’s in trouble.
