NME Originals: 60s

The Beatles, Stones, Who, Hendrix and the bands who made the scene in Swinging London

Why did Jim Morrison get his cock out? Why did Bob Dylan tell us to "keep a good head and always carry a lightbulb"? Why did Jimi Hendrix call The Monkees "dishwater"? And why did The Who's Pete Townshend predict that John Lennon would be beheaded?

The answers to these, and many other great mysteries of rock are revealed in NME Originals: 60s, a stunning new 148 page magazine compiled from the archives of NME and its sister paper Melody Maker. On sale now for a mere £4.99, NME Originals: 60s reprints for the first time since their original publication the cream of Swinging London's music coverage including the first ever reviews of Pink Floyd's psychedelic opus 'Arnold Layne', The Rolling Stones' morality-bothering 'Let's Spend the Night Together' and Bob Dylan's mindboggling 'Highway 61 Revisited'.

The closest you'll ever get to taking a time machine back to relive those heady days of pot parties and paisley blouses, NME Originals: 60s is your chance to take tea with The Small Faces, have a nosey round Tom Jones' bachelor pad, hobnob with Elvis in Vegas, get mightily zonked at the UFO, casually chinwag with Otis Redding, plot style revolution with The Kinks, talk miniskirts with Cilla, apartheid with Dusty and take a cool stroll down Carnaby Street with Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich.

Take your front row seats for James Brown's amazing soul revue in Brixton, Cream's majestic farewell at The Albert Hall and The Rolling Stones' tribute to Brian Jones in Hyde Park. Marc Bolan will tell you about his guardian angel, David Bowie will talk football with the boys in the park and mods and rockers will mash it up all along the seafront.

Lovingly collected together, the one glossy magazine with the groovy Jimi cover, NME Originals: 60s is the "must buy" magazine for all lovers of rock music.
