New thread: One Random #RollingStone Cover. Literally using a random number generator to pull up a single RS cover of the past.
This may be too esoteric for anyone else to care, but I'm always interested in who the magazine was pushing, and whether they seem cover-worthy in retrospect.
First spin: November 30, 1995, issue 722
One more random #RollingStone for now. And the randomizer selects…
July 2, 1987, issue 503
I like to imagine the names up top are actually the members of Paul's backing band
One Random #RollingStone: March 8, 2007
One Random #RollingStone: October 30, 1997, issue 772
#FleetwoodMac #TheDance #ChristineMcVie #LindseyBuckingham #StevieNix
One Random #RollingStone: February 9, 1989, issue 545
One Random #RollingStone: May 14 1981, issue 343
(Five months after #JohnLennon's murder)
One Random #RollingStone: December 28 1995 - January 11 1996, issue 724-5
The way they've got those headshots laid out looks like some sort of spectrum from #JerryGarcia on one end to #Coolio on the other
One Random #RollingStone: August 31, 1972, issue 116
Weird one. With the photo sideways and his glasses off, I didn't even realize it was #RandyNewman at first (and I'm a pretty big fan too).
They shoulda used the nutty inside-cover party photo on the front instead…
One Random #RollingStone: August 8 1991, issue 610
Sure, fine cover, but real miss not to put this amazing inside-the-book shot on the front instead
One Random #RollingStone: July 7 1983, issue 399
Looked like a fairly generic photo at first. Had to look again.
One Random #RollingStone: June 25, 1992, issue 633
People have been demanding I resume my One Random #RollingStone series (don't fact-check that) so we roll the dice and get this timeless classic…
