2007 Magazine of the Week #12



I guess its time to get caught up on the Magazines, so here, from 1975, is ROCK SUPERSTARS POSTER MAGAZINE #3, published by Penthouse Poster Press Ltd.

Its a magazine that folds out into a "36" x 22 1/2" GIANT POSTER OF THE WHO". And The Who take up just about all of the magazine. (Click here to see the issue that featured THE ROLLING STONES.)
Inside, we get the basic history of The Who. And a bit about ROGER DALTREY, who, we're told, "after his starring role in the "Tommy" movie, has transcended normal "rock super star" mold to become a multi-faceted star. Lead singer, successful solo artist, and now an actor who KEN RUSSELL has said will be the most important new actor of the late seventies".

There's also a short article about ROD STEWART, who had recently released a solo LP, "Atlantic Crossing". Here's an excerpt:
"It looks as if Rod will continue to record on his own, although he'll still tour with the band [THE FACES]. Since his last attack on his mates, when he called them sloppy musicians, he's admitted that "we're playing better together, I think we'll stay together." But this time he has shown that he's more than happy with his decisions, both to leave England, which upset The Faces as much as anything, and record with different back-up people."
