This week we feature another magazine with an October 1978 cover date: it's HIT PARADER, from its golden age when LISA ROBINSON was at the helm.
Click on images to enlarge.
The cover story is the MICK JAGGER Hit Parader Interview, by Robinson of course. The interview took place before the release of the "Some Girls" LP.
They discuss BIANCA:
Mick: "Well, I guess it's time for a change. I think, a change for Bianca. It's probably very good for her not to be with me."
And they discuss Mick's playing guitar on the new LP:
Mick: "I had a lot of fun playing guitar. The rest of the band was very cute about it to me and Keith gave me a guitar as a Christmas present. He had it specially made for me, it was nice."
Plenty of other cool stuff in this issue too. We get a "Patti Smith Update", where we learn that Patti was upset by the disco music being played at a post-gig party on Sunset Strip, and insisted that they play THE ROLLING STONES. When she threatened to leave, someone had to make a quick run to Tower Records for some Stones LPs, and "the evening was saved".
Also articles on TOM WAITS, BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, LITTLE FEAT, "The Last Waltz", KRAFTWERK, KANSAS, EAGLES, and WINGS. Album reviews include Wings' "London Town", THE KINKS' "Misfits", and the LP of DAVID BOWIE narrating PROKOFIEV's "Peter and the Wolf".
Plus "Words To The Latest Hit Songs", including ELTON JOHN's "Ego", and ERIC CLAPTON's "Wonderful Tonight".
And there are ads for "ELVIS PRESLEY Memorial Posters", "Elvis Presley Jewelry", and a magazine called "Hit Parader Presents The Immortal Elvis".
