slime.oofytv.set:

Spurious front cover from "The Age of Rock"
this one is strange; front cover is the artwork, 'rock' with zappa bottom right corner; back cover appears to be a different page, you can see where it was cut/ripped, and it overlaps the front page
scan b is the inside front cover and page 3; i peeled the 2 pages apart a little up & down the center
scan c is the only place zappa/grand wazoo is mentioned in the whole magazine, has articles on alice copper & grand funk but no mention of fz, also articles on chicago, ccr, p.townshend/tommy, hot tuna
no dates, but their hitweek top 5 usa songlist is a close match to december-1972 i found, so this is probably from jan or feb 1973
i think the cover/page 2 may be from another issue and was glued on; same size, same paper type/quality, but it's not a real cover page


Javier Marcote:

Also is rare the ad on 1st page which is "'La Edad del Rock' (The Age of Rock) the only underground newspaper (August 1971)" with J.Hendrix on cover. I think the real "Mexico Canta" cover was missing & someone glued this cover & first page.
The back cover could be the "real one" of México Canta.
I think this issue belongs to February 1973. ( One of the weeks.)
