THE BAND: 50 years on from the release of The Basement Tapes, Uncut invites compatriots, aficionados and heads – including JASON ISBELL, RICHARD THOMPSON, LUCINDA WILLIAMS, ELVIS COSTELLO, VAN MORRISON, MARGO PRICE, STURGILL SIMPSON – to celebrate the 30 greatest songs of ROBBIE ROBERTSON, RICK DANKO, GARTH HUDSON, RICHARD MANUEL and LEVON HELM.
THE VERVE: Before Urban Hymns briefly made them the biggest band in Britain, THE VERVE summoned some of the most rapturous rock music of the ’90s, fuelled by a prodigious diet of booze, drugs, Rosicrucianism, home-delivered lasagne and lashings of self-belief. Luckily, they lived to tell the tale: “We wanted that rock’n’roll life. It was all that mattered.”
SHARON VAN ETTEN: With her new band THE ATTACHMENT THEORY set to make their debut, SHARON VAN ETTEN reveals how she found fresh inspiration in collaboration. “How can I keep doing what I’ve been doing, but try new things?”
