Has anyone seen the February 2000 ish of MOJO? Not a mag I usually peruse
but a co-worker passed it on to me to read the articles on LAS VEGAS GRIND
and another feature on the MONKS and CAVESTOMP!  Might not be a big deal
to some of you but I was surprised to see such extensive coverage on such
American events.  The Monks story was shallow, but interesting
nevertheless, and includes a rather frightening photo of them from
Cavestomp.  The LVG article was as I expected; Mojo travels to the States
to see the freaks, the girls, and Dolemite.  The issue also features a
"Top 100 underrated/underappreciated/forgotten bands/artists" thingy that
held a few surprises as well - both in what they included (Joe Meek, Billy
Childish, The Action, a few soul singers) and what they DIDN'T (Prisoners?
60's girl pop singers? Georgie Fame?  The Birds?)  I usually liken MOJO to
ROLLING STONE in terms of audience and content but this one was loads of
fun reading!  Worth a look!
