New subscriptions will begin with the Summer 2010 issue, Backstreets #89

In this new issue:

The focus is on the current Springsteen exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, "From Asbury Park to the Promised Land: The Life and Music of Bruce Springsteen." We take you through the exhibit from floor to floor, picturing many of the artifacts and documenting Bruce's handwritten notes along the way.
The full text of curator Jim Henke's interview with Springsteen himself about what's on display. Portions of this interview can be heard at listening stations throughout the exhibit; Backstreets is the only place you'll find the whole thing.
The Cleveland theme continues as WMMS program director John Gorman writes about Springsteen's rise in the region, culminating with the '78 Agora broadcast, in this excerpt from his book The Buzzard: Inside the Glory Days of WMMS and Cleveland Rock Radio.
Plus: The Backstreets Interview with Bruce's latest collaborator, Alejandro Escovedo; 2010 performances so far, including Dave Marsh on The Rascals and John Wesley Harding on WAMfest; Bruce's Ellis Island Foundation speech; reviews of the latest CD-Rs and Bruce boots, and more. 56 pages, full-color.

Backstreets Magazine

Now nearing the 30-year mark, Backstreets Magazine is an internationally circulated quarterly that focuses on Bruce Springsteen and related Jersey Shore artists. The magazine began in 1980 when the first issue was handed out at a Seattle Springsteen concert. Since then more than 80 issues have been published, and the magazine is now distributed in all 50 states and has subscribers in more than 40 foreign countries.

We offer a money-back guarantee, as we're sure any Springsteen fan will be pleased with Backstreets. MTV called the magazine "the standard to which all others are compared." In 2008, the Chicago Tribune selected Backstreets for its "50 Favorite Magazines" list, calling it "The gold standard of minutiae mags."
