#TBT #NYRocker January 1982. Cover photo by Laura Levine. A $1.50 investment when I was 13 years old, now selling for over $200 on some auction sites. And Dad said I was wasting my money LOL ;-) #Music #NewWave #HipHop

Y'all remember #NYRocker, one of history's best-ever music magazines? Well I do, and so does @efd, and he did this FANTASTIC show on @WFMU chatting with the editor + writers + photogs with lots of tunes from way back including some that I only heard about and never heard (pre-internet, right?) so HIGHLY recommend that you give it a listen and thank you #EvanDavies for putting it together! 🎶 👍 😁 https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/89107

@efd BTW Must compliment your #NYRocker banner! IMHO The best music ‘zine ever. NYC seemed like a musical mecca to this midwestern adolescent!

#TBT The #NYRocker published its final issue September 1982. IMHO One of history's finest music publications, it began covering New York's #NewWave underground but quickly expanded to include #HipHop, #Jazz, #Funk and whatever else the great city had to offer. Sadly missed!🎶👍😁 #Music #Magazines #Journalism
