Title: Goldmine Magazine Smile issue
Post by: bgas on November 15, 2011, 08:53:49 PM
 Has anyone picked this up and read it? ( or someone subscribes? )
I just ordered it today and I haven't seen anyone referring to it, so I'm wondering if it's really good...

Bgas, did the magazine have any session photographs in color?

I have always wanted the image on that cover as a poster. I know the box set came with something from that same day, but I wanted the pyramid photo. Wish they'd make that available.

Maybe you could photoshop it?

Nope. There aren't really a lot of pics included.
I haven't read Dave Beards' complete article yet, but it appears to be a decent companion piece for the Box. I imagine the best stuff will be in the new ESQ. 
 
   What it does have is a nice article from Frank Holmes, sharing the story behind his imagery for Surf's Up.

Does anyone know if there's a UK distributor of Goldmine? Since Tower Records (and subsequently, Borders) closed down, I've never been able to find a London-based shop that sells it, & don't really want to pay the $86 for a sub (Tower used to sell it for under £3 per issue). Anyone?

If you can't find one, let me know, and I'll get another copy and send it to you. The drawback there is shipping will be $8 to the UK, in addition to the $8 Goldmine charges me.
 ( I'll do it for any of my pals in the UK, not just Harveyw)
