What was the first music magazine?

What was the first ever music magazine to go for sale to the public in the UK?

  • I heard from someone that it was NME in the 1950's, but I'm not sure.

  • Answer:

    Apparently it was The Melody Maker.... Melody Maker, published in the United Kingdom, was (until its closure in 2000) the world's oldest weekly music newspaper. Founded in 1926, it was initially targeted at musicians, and soon developed a focus on jazz. In the 1950s, it was slow to cover rock and roll - one notorious editorial describing the new music as "a flash in the pan" - and as a result, lost ground to the New Musical Express (NME).

at a guess it would be an american title that isn't around now but then again there have been many fanzines about music that wouldn't be well known. Maybe you should google
