Tweetah – Issue zero – A5 24 pages £1.50
We were very sad to hear that the excellent magazine Woofah (edited by John Eden) folded as it was a well produced and an informative reggae/dancehall/bass related read (and always well designed too!). It’s always the way isn’t it?
Last week on John’s Uncarved blog I noticed he was selling a fanzine called Tweetah. This is material that was intended for the fifth and final issue of Woofah that never materialised, bah! It’s a great little read, has an interview with David Rodigan, Carlton “Killawatt” Valley and a piece on Tony McDermott, designer of classic greensleeves album covers (Scientist, Lone Ranger etc) amongst other stuff. RIP Woofah! An excellent read for only £1.50 from http://www.uncarved.org/blog/

Woofah – Issue 4 (A5 96 pages for £4!) The latest issue of the excellent reggae, dubstep and grime magazine Woofah featuring lots of great stuff, including reggae-wise the late dub poet Michael Smith (“me cyaan believe it”), Joe Ariwa (Mad Professor’s Son) & Young Warrior, YT, UK dub cutting houses, Studio 1 photographer Ron Vester (he mentions that King Stitt used to get loads of female attention) and a great interview with Tony Thorpe of 400 Blows, Moody Boy’s etc (I seen him playing records once at a Saberettes night in a basement underneath the BT tower!). This mag is well designed and well researched with no advertisements and a must for any serious reggae (and dubstep) fan. Big up to John Eden and friends for putting this fine magazine together!
