Read below about an old issue of ‘UNCUT’ # 181 from June 2012, one of the self-styled ‘best rock magazines’ around.
A long-time reader from Somerset writes to the letters column run for years by ALLAN JONES and asks that the magazine also cover obscure bands, starting with the Third Ear Band. What happened to Sweeney and co.?
A legitimate question, because the reader, a music lover, is not supposed to know the music scene in depth and asks the expert.
Less legitimate is Jones's (derisive? English humour?) response, which only demonstrates the snootiness, know-nothingness and arrogance of a self-referential world that continues to croak its stale truths unconcerned with what is happening just outside the editorial offices of experts...
