Mojo entmooter emerged from the legacy of two previous publishing efforts by fanzine legends Greg and Suzy Shaw: Mojo navigator and Entmoot. Mojo navigator, one of the first rock and roll magazines launched in the summer of 1966 and a pioneering voice in the underground music scene, ultimately ceased publication due to editorial disagreements, as explained by the Shaws, despite its potential to become a significant influence in the music world. Entmoot was dedicated to the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and gained recognition in fantasy circles before being discontinued as their founders shifted focus to music. Mojo entmooter sought to revive the spirit of exploration and discussion found in both previous projects while emphasizing personal insights into music and culture. Unlike traditional fanzines, it strived to stand out by including content from the underground press, which was made possible through its membership in the Underground Press Syndicate. With a modest circulation of 500, it aimed to connect with readers passionate about music, offering fresh perspectives and encouraging contributions from various genres, including science fiction and fandom. The Shaws mailed Mojo entmooter to members of the syndicate and to all major record companies to score review copies of new records for sourcing materials to write about. The Shaws' zines Metanoia, Mojo navigator, Duke of earl, Phonograph record magazine, Bomp!, Duke of earl, and Rock, you sinners! are also included in the RAPMM collection.
