    Any chance of you featuring modern bands, or will we have to continue with people who last sold a record in 1978?

    Magnum released their latest album this year (June to be exact) so they are current. And it is great to see a newspaper report on good bands rather than just the latest fad in music or some current trend. Younger bands do not equate necessarily to better bands.

    Magnum are one of Britain’s best rock bands, and if there is any scandal it is that songwriter/guitarist Tony Clarkin has not been properly acknowledged and rewarded for his 30+ years of exemplary song writing.

    Mark seems to think that Magnum have not sold any records since 1978. If thats the case, how come promoters in 35 European cities want them to play shows ? Just how big is the chip on Mark’s shoulder ?

    I’m not the first MArk – I’m a different one – honest.

    There are loads of bands from the last 30 years still touring and releasing new music – not sure we’ll be seeing too many of the current artists still out there in 30 years. Rock on!

    From what I’ve heard of them rather than calling themselves “Magnum” they should have called themselves “Spud Gun” much more fitting.
