Could you supply me with some information to solve my problem? I am a PUNK at the moment, but, in trying to keep up with the latest trends, I wish to become a MOD As none of my friends are keen to try it: a) Can MODs be bought from England? b) Are they expensive? c) Is it possible to import them? d) Is there any duty or sales tax? Thanks so much. Nearly Mod Brooklyn, Wellington July’s Let's Cock-Up An Advertisement Award should be won by Rip It Up and Putaruru Press. How did you manage to give Eric Clapton his best record cover since EC Woz Hear? Does this ad mean that Messrs Judd, Stiggs and Hillman actually appear on Just One Night or are they only on the cover to boost sales? I’m looking forward to hearing the Swingers play "Layla" or on the other hand, EC trying to play "Yellow Star". My bet is Polygram were thrilled . A Swinging Single St Albans P S. The Vauxhalls have not split. Their EP Movies should be out soon. If Propellor or Ripper show any interest, Northerners might be able to hear some Southern pop!
What does Heavy Rock Fan of Tauranga think he’s on about? Kiss are disco, Led Zeppelin are fossils, Lynyrd Skynyrd are dead. I suggest he lets his eardrums have a treat and listen to some real heavy rock bands like Triumph, Marseille, Iron Maiden, Saxon etc. before Kissco rots his brain. Heavy Metal is making a resurgence and Tauranga and other places should wake up to the fact and start listening to Motorhead etc. Heavy Metal Hugh Miramar I can remember the time when staying up late to see Radio With Pictures used to be an event. Now, since this new pretender’s come along, all I ask, is for the show to change its name, to let the original rest in peace. Joe Smooth Invercargill
