[dazedcola]

what year was that issue?

[foghat]

Remember when "Clapton is God" turned up on the streets of London? I think spin was paying homage to that…..The issue came out in June of 93′ been hanging on my wall since.

Will someone please post the article.

it was here

Thanks Erin. If I were J I would have been embarressed by the headline.

On my mission to find this info, I realized from Jamie’s Turnip Farm that the title of Hand it Over actually came from the song blah. I found this strange, as I have also heard "Hand It Over" was from the book crime and punishment and the smiths song shoplifters of the world.

I wonder what Spin had to say about Hand It Over. I love that one.

no offense to J, but in that pic he looks a little scary, or petefile-ish lol
like, almost Johnny Depp Willy Wonka-ey

lol, did this image disturb anyone else?

I always thought of Robert Smith at the time. That depressed look with lipstick. Maybe a tribute to Just Like Heaven?

That shoot, he looked un-J

He just looks like what the magazine people would make him do.
