Inside the issue, you’ll find:
PATTI SMITH: Looking back over her remarkable career, Smith tells us about deceased French poets, early encounters with Bob Dylan, fears for environmental catastrophe and her love for Billie Eilish. “I don’t regret anything I’ve ever done…”
GILLIAN WELCH: As she releases a new covers album with David Rawlings, Welch tells us about recording other people’s songs, her wrecked studio and Nashville’s “double whammy” of a tornado and coronavirus: “It’s been like living in a war zone.”
PETER GREEN: Former bandmates Christine McVie and Jeremy Spencer pay tribute to Fleetwood Mac’s original guitar genius: “Peter was such an important figure…”
BLACK SABBATH: The making of “Paranoid”
RICHARD & LINDA THOMPSON: The pair take us through their difficult and brilliant decade, while we review their new career-spanning boxset Hard Luck Stories 1972-1982
BRIGHT EYES: As they reconvene their literate indie outfit for a new album, Conor Oberst tells us about inner peace, death and taking mushrooms with his mother
BILL CALLAHAN: “Things have opened up to me,” says the singer-songwriter as we hear how marriage and parenthood have inspired his second album in two years
THE CRAMPS: A classic encounter with Lux Interior, Poison Ivy and co, from NME in March 1980
SUN RA ARKESTRA: Album by album, with the help of the cosmic jazz visionary’s ever-regenerating starship troupe
