BLACK MUSIC Edited by Gavin Petrie (First Edition Hardcover) 1974

 BLACK MUSIC Edited by Gavin Petrie.

Can't get enough of that funky stuff? The goodies contained in this book are just a taste of the feast of facts and features served up in Black Music every month. Using top writers and photographers from both sides of the Atlantic-Jamaica and Africa, too, our aim is to get to the heart of soul, raggae, jazz, blues, gospel, African music and produce a magazine that is factual and expert - but never dull. Glossy, colourful and exciting - but never superfcial.

There are news, reviews and interviews to keep you right up to date with what's happening. And we go deeper, with definitive studies of the music's key figures and detailed accounts of its history.

Forrecord collectors we provide a complete service: British and American charts, uo-to-the-minute reviews and alphabetical listing of all the month's releases. Red-hot newies or obscure oldies... you'll find them all in Black Music.

For club-goers there's our What's Going On guide to happenings in clubs, discos and concerts.

From superstars to street-brothers, we talk to the men and women who make the music. In the studios and in the grooves, on stage and on the streets...we tell it like it is -

Allan Lewiss, Editor.
