MICK JONES
British guitar-slinger Mick Jones cut his musical teeth in the band of Johnny Hallyday, the ‘French Elvis’, in the 60s. Returning to England, he joined Spooky Tooth before winding up in New York in the mid-70s, where he formed Foreigner with ex-King Crimson multi-instrumentalist Ian McDonald and US singer Lou Gramm. The transatlantic rockers went on to sell 80 million records and scored No.1 hits with the ballads Waiting For A Girl Like You and I Want To Know What Love Is.

About Classic Pop
In the new Classic Pop we celebrate 30 years of Kylie Minogue – from the PWL early days through to the iconic noughties classics and her new No.1 album, Golden. We also take an in-depth look at Kylie’s Fever for our Classic Album feature. As a special treat for Kylie fans, we have an exclusive limited edition special fan pack issue of the magazine available with four fantastic A4 glossy art cards of the star. Subscribers will receive an exclusive version of the issue with a collectable cover.
Elsewhere, we are granted a rare audience with Scritti Politti's Green Gartside, we serve up our Top 15 sophisti-pop albums of all time and Prefab Sprout feature in The Lowdown. We chat to Kim Appleby about her new TV show and the prospect of new music; Sophie Ellis-Bextor talks to us about her new album of orchestral reworkings of her back catalogue and Daphne & Celeste return to the pop fray.
Our album reviews section features Sting and Shaggy, CHVRCHES and Alison Moyet. This month’s reissues section includes John Foxx, The Human League and Brian Eno. On the live front, we check out gigs by Erasure, Morrissey, Paul Weller and Lloyd Cole.
