Record Mirror was a national tabloid consumer weekly pop music newspaper founded by Isadore Green in 1953, featuring news articles, interviews, record charts, record and concert reviews, letters from readers and photographs. The paper became repected by both mainstream pop music fans and serious record collectors. It was often seen as the quirkiest of the four competing pop weeklies Melody Maker, NME, Record Mirror and Disc magazine.
The name "Hi-NRG" (without the "Disco") was first mentioned in the UK music magazine Record Mirror in 1983, which championed the gay underground sound and which also published a weekly Hi-NRG Chart.
