So what do we have to tempt you? Cover star David Coverdale talks in depth about the trials and tribulations of making the new Whitesnake album, and how it was writing with guitarists Reb Beach and Joel Hoekstra.
Then we get down with Bon Jovi original members Tico Torres and David Bryan to discuss their past and upcoming UK tour.
I'm sure many of you will have seen Danny Vaughn's impassioned online Youtube video explaining the mess Pledge Music has become, and how it has affected him, and many others. We thought this was a really important industry story, so we phoned up Danny for a more detailed look at what has been going on, and how his solo album project is coping with this financial disaster.
Geddy Lee might have retired Rush, but has been hard at work on his new book, detailing many of the bass guitars in his collection...and possible future musical output!
Elsewhere we have interviews with Doug Aldrich on the new Burning Rain album (and his reasons for leaving Whitesnake), Dream Theater, Francis Rossi, Avantasia, Tesla, Queensryche, Hardline, Yngwie Malmsteen, Delain, Jim Peterik, Todd Rundgren, Last In Line, LA Guns, Steve Hackett, Todd Rundgren, Jordan Rudess, Mike Tramp, Eden's Curse, Mute Gods, Leverage, Beast In Black, From The Fire, Cats In Space, Symphony Of Pain, Fortune, Leverage ... and many more! Definitely a case of something for everyone!
This issue's Enthusiast's Guide take a look at all versions of Bad Company, Bands That Time Forgot sees Dave Reynolds shine a spotlight on Franke & The Knockouts and Zon, while Sisters In Rock covers Beth Hart, Tori Amos, Karen Lawrence and The Girls From Rouge.
The Old Curiousity Shop takes a look at the mighty Hulk Hogan. Yes, really!! Even I didn't know my friends the late Ralph Santolla and Todd Plant (both Millenium) played on his album.
Unsung Heroes is a four page, in-depth look into the career of Chris Thompson.
