Vintage Rock | Dec/Jan 2025
In our latest issue we shine a light on the often overlooked influence that the mighty Sam Cooke had on the emerging Big Beat, with help from his daughter Carla and the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
Elsewhere, we delve into the peak recording years of Bill Haley and Roy Orbison via their work on the Decca and Monument labels respectively and travel to Mississippi to take a look inside the doors of The Killer’s homestead, which is now being reopened to the public as The Lewis Ranch Experience.
And ahead of what would have been Elvis’ 90th birthday next January, we gaze into our crystal ball to plan out an alternative future for the King of Rock’n’roll had he lived.
We also take a deep dive into the career of Eddie Cochran in our Experience feature – the first of a new series that’s a one-stop shop detailing our favourite legacy artists.
VR checks in with Marty Wilde and The Bullets to hear about their new music projects and we also celebrate the Gretsch guitar by looking back at the history of the iconic brand and those who have played their six-strong wonders.
Our latest classic album is Louis Jordan’s Somebody Up There Digs Me and we also count down our personal Top 20 Neo-rockabilly songs.
