JUKE, Australia
JUKE was a weekly Australian rock and pop newspaper published from Melbourne that ran from 1975 to 1992. It was one of two main music newspapers at the time offering a Melbourne-based perspective of the music industry. It was highly regarded by the music industry along with its main competitor ROCK AUSTRALIA MAGAZINE (aka RAM) which offered a more Sydney-based perspective and coverage of the Australian music industry at the time.
A key and popular feature of JUKE was its extensive gig guide (particularly of Melbourne's music scene), which attracted a lot of attention by bands, booking agencies and venues. Over time JUKE took a more national focus as a music newspaper and the gig guide also evolved to cover more of a national perspective of gigs across Australia.
