As a writer for American Record Guide, I've kept out of this discussion
of Gramophone. That said, I do want to point out that, while ARG's are
glossy, the content is black and white, mostly all text, with only a few
pictures, and very few ads.

Most of ARG's covers, if not all of them, are esssentially artwork
announcing Overviews, articles, features, etc. I have not examined all
my back issues, but I don't recall any that would serve to promote
artists.
