Anyone know how to get hold a copy of this issue? Tried the website but it doesn't seem to include 'out of series' issues!

I had never heard of this magazine, so I looked it up on Wikipedia, and was surprised to read:

"They produced several tribute records, including the influential I'm Your Fan to Leonard Cohen in 1991".

Clearly, dedicated Cohenites ...! :D

As if the one on the cover weren't enough 8) !
I, too, am hoping you'll be able to give us some ordering information, Jarkko.

The photo on the cover was printed in In His Own Words book, but black&white - it's nice finally to see the colour of his This message has been classified as spam and will be deleted by the moderators shoes :lol:

I guess that back issues order will be possible from their website in the near future?

The inside story had 7 pages, including 1 full-page color picture and 5 smaller b/w pictures

According to the information on the cover of the magazine, copies of the issues are on sale at the newsstands not only in France but also in Germany, Spain, Greece, Luxembourg, Belgium, Portugal, Switzerland, UK, and Canada. Maybe members in those countries who will find such a newsstand are going to lend a helping hand? - Back issues are available (later) also directly from the publisher. I for instance bought the earlier Cohen issues (#30/1991 and #1/1995) two/six years after they were printed, and even got the I'm Your Fan promo EP, too, with the special issue in question!

For Germany / NRW:
Usually, the weekly issue of Les Inrockuptibles is available at the newsstand of Cologne main train station and also in Essen (at least I have seen it before), but not in Düsseldorf.
As I will be in France next week, I am ready to buy up to four issues for forum readers in Germany who have no other access to it. Contact me by PM about it.

I already have mine ... present from my son-in-law :D but like Chubi could buy another copy for anybody who can't find it near by. It costs 9,90€. Please send a pm if you are interested.

They will apparently send it world wide, but I have not tried that service as I live in France

Good luck all
