I was going through some old mags and other things and came across these issues of the great Kicks zine that I've owned for 30 plus years. I bought Kicks #3 at the late, lamented Village Music in Mill Valley. After flipping my wig over that issue I tracked down issue #2. This creation of Miriam Linna and the late, great Billy Miller pretty much changed my life and those of several of my friends. It was a cultural lifeline in the conformist 80's. Think I'll keep these close at hand over the next few horrible years to remember that Chuck Berry made this country great, not Joe McCarthy. #kicks #zine #miriamlinna #billymiller #letsmakeamericarocknrollagain #nortonrecords
