Description:
Hey was a popular Turkish weekly music, cinema, and youth magazine first published in 1970. Known for its coverage of Turkish and international music, artist profiles, and music charts, it became an important publication for music fans in Turkey. Hey Müzik Dünyası was a free supplement to the main magazine, featuring additional music news, biographies, song lyrics, and printed musical notation.
This Turkish-language issue, dated December 6, 1982, is the thirteenth issue of Hey Müzik Dünyası and features John Lennon, legendary member of The Beatles, on the cover. The cover portrait is an illustration by Turkish artist Sezar, giving this issue a distinctive locally produced design. Published to mark the second anniversary of Lennon’s death on December 8, 1980, the magazine includes coverage of his life and legacy, along with comments from his wife, Yoko Ono, and details about her life following his death. Another feature presents the biography of Vanessa, a Dutch singer associated with the disco music scene.
Music fans will also find the lyrics and original musical notation for “Abracadabra,” the international hit by the Steve Miller Band. The back cover features the comic strip “Bastır Viking” (Hagar the Horrible), created by American cartoonist Dik Browne.
