RTP-area local music and culture

[grady <grady AT ibiblio.org>]

Most of the national coverage in that era was in autumn '92, a couple of 
months after the Big Record Stardom Convention (that was when the 
articles in Spin, Details & Alternative Press came out, at least). I 
don't think I've ever seen the Rolling Stone one, so Mary, if you *do* 
still have a copy (or of anything else local-music-related), I'd be most 
interested in seeing a xerox or a scan, as I've just cleaned out *my* 
packrat pile of old music mags, with an eye towards scanning & posting 
the salient bits.

There *may* have been something in Rolling Stone earlier, but the 80s 
attention, such as it was (there was *precious* little, beyond the odd 
record review, in Spin throughout the 80s), would've probably been 
mid-80s rather than late-80s, as that was sort of the valley between the 
mid-80s and early-90s outside-attention-bursts.
