DISC, UK

      DISC was a weekly British popular music magazine, published between 1958 and 1975, when it was incorporated into Record Mirror. It was also known for periods as DISC WEEKLY (1964–1966) and DISC AND MUSIC ECHO (1966–1972).
      The magazine was first published on 8 February 1958, with the main competition being RECORD MIRROR. It gained a reputation for its emphasis on pop music as reflected in the music charts, in comparison with its more music-industry-focused rivals MELODY MAKER and NEW MUSICAL EXPRESS.
      It was renamed DISC WEEKLY between 5 December 1964 and 16 April 1966.
      In 1966, it was incorporated with MUSIC ECHO magazine, which had itself previously taken over MERSEY BEAT. The new magazine was known as DISC AND MUSIC ECHO (with the name "DISC" shown more prominently on the masthead), from 23 April 1966.
      DISC dropped the name MUSIC ECHO from its title in 1972, and continued to be published until 30 August 1975, when it merged with RECORD MIRROR. Musicians Marc Bolan, Paul McCartney, Mike Batt and others wrote them personal notes lamenting their closure.
