Melody Maker was a British weekly music magazine, one of the world's earliest music weeklies. It was founded in 1926, largely as a magazine for dance band musicians, by Leicester-born composer, publisher Lawrence Wright; the first editor was Edgar Jackson. In 2000 it was merged into "long-standing rival" (and IPC Media sister publication) New Musical Express. The magazine was registered at the post office as a newspaper. It is published by IPC Magazines. First issue January 1926 - Final issue December 2000.
