Skate Rock Series
Thrasher released a music compilation series titled "Skate Rock" under the label of High Speed Productions, starting in 1983 with Volume One and continuing until Volume Seven in 1989. The series started out featuring California-based punk rock bands, eventually featuring bands fronted by skaters (Steve Caballero, Tony Alva, Klaus Grabke as Eight Dayz, etc.)
Of the seven volumes of Skate Rock, all volumes were produced as a cassette available through Thrasher Magazine. Some volumes were also available on LP.

Famous quotes containing the words skate, rock and/or series:
“Wait, Kate! You skate at such a rate
You leave behind your skating mate.
Your splendid speed won’t you abate?
He’s lagging far behind you, Kate.”
—David Daiches (b. 1912)
“The acorn’s not yet
Fallen from the tree
That’s to grow the wood,
That’s to make the cradle,
That’s to rock the bairn,
That’s to grow a man,
That’s to lay me.”
—Unknown. The Cauld Lad of Hilton or, The Wandering Spectre (l. 2–8)
“I look on trade and every mechanical craft as education also. But let me discriminate what is precious herein. There is in each of these works an act of invention, an intellectual step, or short series of steps taken; that act or step is the spiritual act; all the rest is mere repetition of the same a thousand times.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
