Mojo navigator 1966–1967

Mojo navigator R&R News is considered the U.S. west coast’s first rock n’ roll magazine. It was the work of two San Francisco teenagers, David Harris and Greg Shaw. Taking advantage of Shaw’s previous experience as a fanzine maker, the two produced 14 mimeographed, stapled issues in 1966 and 1967 that were sold locally. The magazine focused on the psychedelic rock scene of the San Francisco area, featuring interviews with Grateful Dead, Big Brother and the Holding Co., Country Joe and the Fish, and The Doors. Greg Shaw later founded the fanzine (Who put the) Bomp! and the record label Bomp! Records, while Mojo navigator was a major influence on Jann Wenner, who founded Rolling Stone magazine in San Francisco in November 1967. Shaw's other titles, Metanoia, Mojo entmooter, Phonograph record magazine, Bomp!>, Rock, you sinner, and Duke or earl, are also included in the RAPMM collection.
