Order a print-on-demand copy of Thrust™ Magazine on high-quality gloss paper and have it delivered to your door.

This month's issue features a history-making interview with The Quarrymen, whose Rod Davis discusses John Lennon in Sunday School, how The Quarrymen were founded, and lots more stories of pre-Beatles from the 1957-1959 era. There's more too—the rarest photo of 16-year old John Lennon and The Quarrymen, hours before Lennon "officially" met Paul McCartney for the first time.

The British Music History 101 doesn't stop there: Thrust™ interviews The Zombies as they celebrate the band's 50th birthday and a look back at Eric Burdon (from The Animals). Also check out the next great Blues legend, and he's not from Chicago, Memphis, or the Mississippi Delta. Meet Columbus, Ohio’s Patrick McLaughlin.
