CRAWDADDY! New Series, Winter 1993 - Present
"This new incarnation
is a newletter; the editor will
write much but not all of each issue.
The purpose as it was in 1966
is to use our common enthusiasm for and
interest in new music as
a basis for intimate and honest communication.
"Our" means editor, writers, readers.
This publication is dedicated
to serving the spirit of music,
that which rewards us and inspires us as
we listen. It is not meant to serve
the music business and will
accept no advertising."
