THE BEATLES An exclusive early look at a Special Edition of Rubber Soul – with remixes, outtakes and (intriguingly) more – prompts an indulgent immersion in the Fab Four’s first mature masterpiece.
JOHNNY MARR On the perils of nostalgia, the doors of perception, Macca’s gnomic advice, Billie Eilish’s studio chops and why there are Smiths songs he won’t sing.
KATE & ANNA McGARRIGLE Fifty years ago, the Canuck sisters’ debut album arrived, and its beyond-folk palette still beguiles. “The pictures they painted were so vivid.”
MIKE D The Beastie Boys’ chief cratedigger on tabloid infamy, grief negotiation, Bob Dylan’s “pro-smoking concert” and a surprising new solo album.
FLAMIN’ GROOVIES Shake Some Action should have made them stars. It didn’t, but their name and their song live on: “There’s even a guy in the Taliban doing a karaoke version.”
WISHBONE ASH “Tuning into the cosmos” delivered the harmony lead guitars and medieval concept prog of the pathfinding Argus. Then came the fist-fights and palace coups.
THE AFGHAN WHIGS Greg Dulli and band brought soul vibes and howling self-castigation to the post-grunge ’90s. Navigating drugs and danger, it’s a miracle they’re still with us.
THE MARY WALLOPERS Dundalk’s ‘new Pogues’ sink a few Aperol Spritzes and talk tradition, politics, the peers who do them down, and their new album: “It’s a bit of a fuck you.”
