My favourite overseas magazine at the moment is the Oxford American, now based in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is tagged as The Southern Magazine Of Good Writing, it publishes a music issue each year and the result is fabulous. This year to celebrate the tenth anniversary they have a double CD featuring an eclectic array of artists.
You can buy a copy of the magazine online at the website (www.oxfordamericanmag.com) and it has to be the bargain of the year (or any year) – US$9.95 including airmail. I bought three copies.
You can also purchase the Oxford American Book of Great Music Writing – and it is truly superb – but it is a lot more expensive.
