These are all full issues so there's a lot of other content besides Beatle-related articles, but they are a good time-capsule of the music back then. I'll include a list of the issues below.
Hope you enjoy them!

Re: Beatles-related Rolling Stone issues (1967-2006)
Thanks for these. Great stuff.
This thread has every issue from the start, to the end of 1972, if you want them (links in first post). Not always Beatles articles inside, but often news, reviews, adverts, etc...

Thanks Mr. Bump...I had completely forgotten about that thread! Looks like MorseMoose and I have been using the same source files to create these PDFs so there's a bit of overlap, but not too much. I like his approach to it, though, as it is nice to have copies of the older issues to read, whether they have Beatles content or not.

How sacred Cow, lol! I have always wanted this stuff. Thanks so much for the share. Loving having the entire issues to browse through. What lovely time capsules.
Merry Easter everyone, everywhere!

Re: Beatles-related Rolling Stone issues (1967-2006)
Thank you for including the complete issues, not just the Beatles material! Thanks to MorseMoose I have a complete (digital) run of every issue from 1967 to 1972, and thanks to you I can add to that collection.
The only problem I have, and I guess it's a good one to have, is that now I have to re-name all of my files.
I've been using this naming convention: <Rolling Stone - 001 - 1967-11-09>, with the issue number followed by the date in YYYY-MM-DD format. But now that there's a 1000th issue, I've named that file <Rolling Stone - 1000 - 2006-05-18>, so I have to add an additional zero to the issue number of my other issues so that they all have four digits: <Rolling Stone - 0001 - 1967-11-09>. Consistency, you see.
It's a pain in the ass to have to do it, but that's okay; I'm a grownup and I can deal with it.

Re: Beatles-related Rolling Stone issues (1967-2006)
Computer Gary, how about using a renamer program like "Magic File Renamer" which is a program I've used successfully in the past for big projects. Probably still a free trial program out there. Or I see on Google another free for home use program called "Bulk Rename Utility". But for some people, there's something satisfying about naming folders and files and categorizing and such. With your online name, I bet you're one of those. I've redone how I keep my Beatles folders of audio and video more than once. Small but important renaming projects are like getting all my Harrison '74 concerts to show up in succession and lots of other not too overwhelming busy work deserves the "do it by hand" energy.
