A NOTICE TO OUR PUBLIC…………
\nIt’s now a shade over twenty years since Rolling Stone<\/em> was launched, complete with a brave new broadside on its interests and purposes.<\/p>\n

So we too now announce our aims and prejudices and strive to clear a path laying bare our hopes and inspirations. Strange Things<\/em> will deal from the heart and feature items that we would wish to find on offer. Music, from whatever era, will always be the core, with in-depth studies of a sound or an individual, or a laugh and a picture whenever the situation arises. There will be discographies, reviews, rare photographs; there will be threads or themes across several issues or even, instead, a one off appreciation.<\/p>\n

That aside, there will be literature, film and television; cult curiosities or mainstream geniuses. In short, the boundaries are limitless. Over the next few issues the tale of Greenwich Village will unfold; so too the life and work of Richard Brautigan. Frantic new pop will sit beside English folk-rock, the Silver Surfer will meet the San Franciscan scene and white Chicago Blues will rock with Thunderbirds. “Whatever Fits” is our new motto \u2013 we’re there wherever strange things are happening.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
