August 1991 Pop Culture: Guns ‘N Roses, Bulletboys & Paula Abdrool

The August 1991 issue has a few pop culture topics to go deep on. Guns ‘N Roses gets covered with a What Now concert review AND a review of Danny Sugerman’s very pretentious-sounding book about them in the brand-new column Read It (though probably don’t; it only earns one pip as the month’s book bomb). Paula Abdul gets a bomb review of her new album Spellbound AND name-checked as “Paula Abdrool” in the Keanu Reeves/Alex Winter cover Q&A. Otherwise, we get a lot of material we might like more coverage on, like: Siouxsie And The Banshees’ Superstition; Ethan Hawke’s Mystery Date hair; Tori Spelling’s 18th birthday party; and what Anne L. could not have foreseen would be an incredible revolving door of BulletBoys. You don’t need an extra arm à la The Dark Backward to enjoy our commentary on all of the above and more!
