Does anyone know of an archive that holds the newspaper/magazine R'n'B World? Other than one copy on eBay right now I can't find anything.

Continuing the search for R'n'B World. These ads and articles appeared in their sister publication Go Magazine. I made an article on Wikipedia about Go Publishing in the hope someone might eventually add more information too.
I really miss @JournalismMusic. It was the only newsletter I read weekly without fail as I loved the interviews with music journalists from around the world. Is there something else like it?
RIP @JournalismMusic, it was good while it lasted. Thank you as always to Todd for being a friend. After much anxiety-induced procrastination I have turned the archives Google Doc into a website which is where it will live for now https://t.co/53gdw7n9bp
Have you ever wondered who the man is on the cover of DJ Shadow's 'Midnight In A Perfect World'? His name is John Hillyard and since 2001 a friend and I have been researching his life. The article will finally be published next week!

@Detroit67Book I just finished your Harlem 69 book and I'd love to pick your brain about a couple of things as I'm researching a similar topic. What's the best way to contact you?
I quite like this feature of Wikipedia, showing the impact of my edits on my Homepage. You can see yours here if you're logged in: https://t.co/ZtM2VwE0BD
@natalieweiner@verge For me, Iโm mostly annoyed about Discogsโ recent deletion of comments at the bottom of releases that arenโt considered reviews. There were so many interesting factoids people have added over the years that are slowly being wiped. Their review policy is weird and unclear too.
Back in the 90s Fellaheen Records released debuts from Gerling and Ben Lee, as well as that awesome clear Beastie Boys 7" everyone loves. I interviewed Steven "Stav" Stavrakis about his label and found out why it was so short-lived https://t.co/QQmqSpSXIu
@TroveAustralia I'm very late to the party, but over the weekend I wrote a Wikipedia page about Australian actress Agnes Dobson based on articles from @TroveAustralia https://t.co/Tv0QUEZPOO
@brianlforbes@Tim_Burgess@4AD_Official@josephinewiggs@kelleydeal@thebreeders Was the 1993 gig moved to a different date and venue? I was looking at old shows for Luscious Jackson and saw your ticket. I found a listing for The Plaza on the 29th, but then it looks like it was rescheduled for Barrowlands on the 28th.
I've been looking at the Australian label Fellaheen Records, and their releases on the ARIA Alternative Top 20 Chart. Here's Pavement's album Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain. It peaked at no. 2 on 17 April 1994 https://t.co/TjA7ttvG4r
And for something more local, here's the Fellaheen release of Budd's Ovit single. It spent 15 weeks in the ARIA Alternate Top 20 Chart, the longest for any Australian group released by Fellaheen Records. It peaked at no. 3 https://t.co/lZQFeQLVF0
Today's interesting snippet about our new dataset, Australian Writing and Rock Music: it tracks both works about rock music and works by rock musicians*, and the contrast in numbers is intriguing.
*that is, creative works other than music.
