And so, this issue we bring you Kev Rowland, the Antipodean maven of PROG, we bring you strange news from Sendelica, Steve Andrews’ remarkable new album, Hawkwind news, Psych and Reggae in Todmorden, whilst Jon gets all Erisian as well as bumbling on about Political Correctness
Hail Eris!
And there are radio shows from Mack Maloney and Friday Night Progressive AND Strange Fruit AND 'cos there was a Full Moon last week, an episode of Canterbury Sans Frontieres, there are columns from Kev Rowland, Mr Biffo, C J Stone, and Roy Weard, but Neil Nixon and the irrepressible Corinna are on hiatus. There is also a collection of more news, reviews, views, interviews and potoroos who are fallen for a ruse (OK, nothing to do with tiny marsupials who are easily obfuscated, but I got carried away with things that rhymed with OOOOS) than you can shake a stick at. And the best part is IT's ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!
