The ''RēR Quarterly'' (also known as ''Rē Records Quarterly'' and ''RēR Records Quarterly'') was an English "quarterly" sound-magazine comprising an LP record and a magazine. It was published at irregular intervals between 1985 and 1997 by Recommended Records and November Books, and edited by English percussionist, lyricist and music theorist, Chris Cutler. It was sold internationally by Recommended Records via mail order and in specialist record shops. A total of thirteen issues were published (four volumes of four, four, three and two issues respectively) plus two "collection" issues featuring music selections from volumes 1 and 2. From volume 4 the LP was replaced by a CD and the CD and the magazine (now entitled ''unFILEd: The RēR Sourcebook'') were sold separately or together as a set. The record in each issue contained previously unreleased music by artists from across the world, including commissioned pieces, projects and live recordings. The A4 magazine (varying from 42 to 112 pages per issue) included artwork and theoretical and practical articles on music, often by the composers and performers featured on the record. In keeping with the goals of Recommended Records and its prime mover, Rock in Opposition, a number of new musicians and groups appeared on the records, many having their music published internationally for the first time. Cutler described the ''RēR Quarterly'' as: Paul Oldfield wrote in the English music newspaper, ''Melody Maker'' in 1985: "Theirs (Quarterly'' ) is the pursuit of unimaginable, packed in artwork of giddy luminescence."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RēR Quarterlies )〕 ==Background== The idea for ''RēR Quarterly'' began in 1982 when Recommended Records released the ''Recommended Records Sampler'', a sampler double album by various artists that contained newly recorded and previously unreleased work by musicians and groups on the Recommended Records catalogue at the time. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「RēR Quarterly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
