Thor 7,504 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I remember seeing that ad in National Geographic, I think. My dad has susbcribed to the magazine since the 70s. Amer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remember going through some old 80s and 70s NG magazines in the mid 90s, and suddenly stumbling on to this ad. I think it was on the back, but I can't remember. This was just as my Williams fandom was taking off, so I was quite surprised, to put it mildly. Amer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its after SUPERMAN Since there's no mention of TESB, or ROTLA (and who would want to mention DRACULA or 1941?), I think azahid is right.

Josh500 1,615 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Japan is also the only country which had an official JW fanclub, if I'm not mistaken. JW even wrote a short fanfare for that club.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I'll let Will speak for himself, but I believe he only discovered the music of Williams in a serious way in the past couple of years.
