What's wrong with those covers? The Kate Bush one was obviously to tie in with the tour.

The new issue doesn't look very tempting.  Mike Rutherford on the cover?  Another Rush article? William Shatner, though , so maybe?

To be fair, there will be younger readers of the magazine, brought up on acts such as Dream Theater etc., who, unlike us, will not have seen more interviews with Anderson et al than we have had hot meals, and might not know the background to the making of such classics and the tensions in the band at the time.

Those people will take a lot from the magazine.

Actually, I quite enjoyed it, as well, because there is a lot more in there than merely the cover story. The cover is designed to flog the thing so people read the extended content inside.

All in all, I think they do a good job.

Thank you, Steve!  Your endorsement matters a great deal.  As soon as I can find it, I'll snag it.  

BTW, I'm an older reader of the magazine who saw Yes perform CTTE on 22 September, 1972.  There are not enough words to describe what I saw!  

Cheers!  BTW, I dreamt about Wales the other night, I was quaffing a pint with Steve Carney, the vocalist from UK Yes tribute "Fragile".  Lovely evening, I wish you were there!

I just picked up the new issue, came out yesterday.  The main feature is on supergroups (ELP,Asia, GTR, UK, Transatlantic, etc) plus Steeleye Span, Can, Pendragon, ambient music, and the usual malarkey.

True. You put it very well.

The point I made was purely the (non) inclination of me buying the issue. Embarrassed

Hi,
 
Just saw one of these at Borders and it was ... Pink Floyd! Another one!
 
Hmmmm ..... we need more pictures! I have yet to see the ones with Marillion and Camel and would have gladly snapped them up! But this area, is too stupid, uneducated and top ten oriented, so we probably will never see those here.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

You'll have to smoke some of that evil stuff so you can see double like the original cover!
