Classic Rock Presents Prog Magazine October 2009 Radiohead Genesis Hawkwind SKU 1547

Full Date

October 2009

Description

Original Classic Rock Presents Prog Magazine – October 2009, Issue 11, a substantial dedicated progressive-rock publication from Future Publishing.

This issue has a striking Radiohead-themed front cover, dominated by a close-up portrait and the headline:

“Radiohead – WE WILL SURVIVE! Their Destiny & Legacy”

The contents confirm an extensive Radiohead feature on page 82, described as an exclusive look at the truth behind rumours surrounding the band at the time, together with a retrospective look back to 1992. This makes the issue particularly appealing to collectors of Radiohead memorabilia and late-2000s progressive/alternative rock journalism.
