Q. I bought the first 168 issues religiously and then stopped for some reason. I used to really look forward to it coming out every month.

Re: Magazines and Papers you used to buy , religiously
Another regular purchase in our house from about 1964 to 1967 was the monthly Beatles magazines called the Beatles Book. I was around ten at that time and my brother and sister were about half my age, but my mum used to buy them and then say she was getting them for us kids and yet I never got to see them until she had read them from cover to cover (she would have been not far short of forty at the time) - shame we didn’t keep them because I bet they’d be worth a fair bit now.

Or I did!
I used to really love it and agree about the album reviews, off which I would (amazing as it sounds now with unlimited access to music) often base my purchases.
I was sad when it folded recently as I must have spent hours reading it. But it was of its time I suppose. :-(
