THE BEATLES: 30 years on from the groundbreaking documentary, albums and book, Uncut steps inside Anthology 2025, to hear about how it all came together, what passive aggressive ukelele sounds like, and what’s still in the archive. “It makes ‘Revolution 9’ sound like ‘Penny Lane’,” reveals Giles Martin.
JEFF TWEEDY AND ALAN SPARHAWK: Wilco’s chief architect and Low’s co-leader look back over 2025. To be discussed: family, Spinal Tap II, Jim O’Rourke’s collection of modular synths and their abiding friendship: “We’ve always had a lot of fun together,” they tell Uncut.
PINK FLOYD: From recording the sound of wine glasses to a man on fire and comics strips about boats: the miraculous creation of Wish You Were Here in words and pictures. NICK MASON bids us welcome to the machine…
ANNIE & THE CALDWELLS: 2025 has been a breakthrough year for the Southern soul gospel sensations. In Nashville, Uncut hears how their mission to spread joy to their audiences is the culmination of a lifelong dream. “I have to smile and tell God ‘Thank you,’ because He could have chosen anybody to do this.”
BAXTER DURY AND JASON WILLIAMSON: The indie provocateur and Sleaford Mods’ splenetic frontman turn their attentions to 2025. Stand-by for a bleak, brash, honest and often humorous assessment of the year just gone. Their conclusions? “We are just flogging this dead horse, aren’t we?”
AN AUDIENCE WITH… CAMERON CROWE: The journalist turned filmmaker Cameron Crowe on Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell and more.
THE MAKING OF “DRY THE RAIN” BY THE BETA BAND: Inspirations for a dazzling electronic anthem: depression, agoraphobia, racist mods and sleeping under the stairs…
