GREEN RIVER: They spawned Mudhoney, Mother Love Bone and Pearl Jam… but they were a band out of their time.
STRAY DOG: They influenced Queen, Van Halen, Steve Vai and were poised to be the next big power trio. So what went wrong?

All this and more in the latest issue of Classic Rock, on sale now!
Not bloody Guns ‘n’ Roses on the cover AGAIN!
If it’s not them it’s Kiss….
Don’t give me the ”It’s what sells copy” line, it won’t wash. Try featuring some TRUE classic rock bands instead. You may be surprised by the increase in sales.
Babe Ruth, Fruupp, Saraya, Taste, Groundhogs, ALL classic rock but none of which have had any decent coverage in your magazine….
Ok, the man in a skirt has just released a CD that took 15 years to complete…
Big deal.
If he gave a fuck it would have been finished by the original band 14 years ago.
Give it a rest. I don’t want to see prats like ‘Rose’ and Kiss on the cover every couple of months.
Or are you ‘remastering’ yourselves?….
Tezza
Yes they are obscure, but isn’t that what
Guns on the cover AGAIN??
After and incredible delayed cover with CLASSIC ROCK LEGEND Deep Purple, guess we’re back to normal then. Oh, and another article on Thin Lizzy? Geez, didn’t see that one coming at all…
At least the CD sounds good.
First off I completely love Classic Rock. Over the last 4 years I ‘ve read every issue cover to cover as the mag got better and better. I live in the US and this mag blows Rolling Stone and Spin out of the water. But holy smokes G’n'R on the cover again? We all know the story.Better luck next month.
pity we have to look at axel`s face `till next month but it`s whats inside the cover that matters. i`m off out to buy mine .rock on!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, I could care less what’s on your cover as long as the picture refers to what your magazine is all about, “Classic Rock”! What is great about this issue is a Stray Dog article. I can’t wait to read it. They were a great band!!! Since I live in the U.S. it will be a while before we get it here. Like someone else mentioned we get the awful, worthless Rolling Stone and Spin here. Anyway keep up the great work! What a great magazine!
Thanks for including us in the issue. It will make it rock with or without Axl.
