Record Time Magazine — Issue #4 Overview

Record Time No. 4 is the latest in Scott Soriano’s print-only music magazine, which focuses on obscure, unusual, forgotten, and neglected records — not collectibles or rarities, but great finds that can be had at bargain-bin prices recordtimeorg.wordpress.com+1.

Theme & Content

Issue #4 continues the magazine’s mix of deep dives into niche artists, forgotten genres, and quirky record stories. The previews and previews indicate a range of topics, including:

• Bag of Hammers Records — a feature on a specific label or artist.

• The Roxanne Wars — a look at the 1984 UTFO B-side “Roxanne, Roxanne” and its cultural ripple effects.

• Golden Earring — beyond the “Radar Love” hits, exploring the band’s lesser-known work.

• The Mexican Bolero — a record cover and price that sparked curiosity.

• Rockers & Has-Beens Go Anti-Punk — challenging the myth that punk and older rockers were purely enemies.

• Patty Pravo — Italian pop star and her place in music history.

• Travis Wammack — a personal rant or commentary from the editor recordtimemagazine.substack.com.

These pieces blend music history, cultural context, and personal anecdotes, often with a sense of humor and a “fall off the edge of fandom to freak” attitude
