Smash Hits

Smash Hits

UK pop magazine launched in November 1978, closed in 2006. For the first few years the magazine was more 'alternative' featuring rock and pop groups from all different genre's including having a regular 'disco' and 'indie' section. However, by the mid-1980s it became more 'pop' orientated. It also began to cover TV and film celebrities as well. Initially each edition was issued with Vol. # Number #. However, by autumn 1986 the magazine also issued another number eg. the 8-12 October 1986 edition was "Issue Number 205 / Volume 8 Number 21". Whether they eventually did away with the Vol # Number # is unclear at present until later editions are added to Bookogs.
