Robert Plant explains that he much prefers performing with his latest band, the Sensational Space Shifters, to playing hits from his past, in the new issue of Uncut.
Sinead O'Connor has claimed that her spat with Miley Cyrus has helped create an "important" conversation about mental health.
O'Connor published an open letter urging Cyrus not to let the music industry take advantage of her in October this year. Since then, the pair have swapped barbs in public, with Cyrus receiving criticism from mental health charities for mocking O'Connor's battles with psychological illnesses over the years.
Eric Clapton and Robert Plant are among the artists confirmed for A Celebration of Bert Jansch, a concert to be held at London's Royal Festival Hall on December 3, 2013.
The Festival Hall was the venue for Pentangle’s first major performance in 1967 and the group recorded part of their Sweet Child album there in 1968. The original line-up reformed to play at the Royal Festival Hall exactly 40 years later and a Pentangle show there in August 2011 proved to be Jansch’s final performance.
