Not much in the way of photos in our magazine this week, but its still a lot of fun. The August 1985 issue of SONG HITS features the cover story "MICK JAGGER: He's The Boss" by RICH SUTTON.

Sutton gives us the basic short history of THE STONES and tells us a bit about Mick's first solo LP "She's The Boss": "Jagger at his teasing, snarling, cocksure, belligerent best. Nearly in a league with "Some Girls", its another shot in the arm for rock and roll". We're also reassured that "Mick's convinced that he's got a few more years on the road left", although "as for WATTS and WYMAN, their homelives could conceivably put a lid on another Stones' tour".
Also in this issue are articles on "USA FOR AFRICA" ("United Support of Artists for Africa") and the whole "We Are The World" thing, LRB ("the new moniker for Australia's LITTLE RIVER BAND"), GEORGE DUKE, and JOHN SCHNEIDER.
Album reviews include ERIC CLAPTON's "Behind The Sun" and EMMYLOU HARRIS' "The Ballad of Sally Rose" (one of my favorites - will we ever see an American CD release of this one?).
And of course, lots and lots of song lyrics, including "Say You're Wrong" by JULIAN LENNON, Clapton's "Forever Man", LOS LOBOS' "Will The Wolf Survive", BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN's "I'm On Fire", Emmylou Harris' "White Line", and John Schneider's "Its A Short Walk From Heaven To Hell" (huh???).
