THE MOJO INTERVIEW
Pugnacious pioneer of the folk revival ’til her voice faltered, she returned to carry its torch. But if her new LP is really her swan song, what wisdom does she pass on? “You just sing the song for its own sake,” says Shirley Collins.
None more Black
Of portentous lineage, Gigger Buttler wasBlack Sabbath’s secret weapon, an instinctive innovator and scribe of their seminal lyrics. But behind the doom and anguish of Sabbath's songs, and the slapstick comedy of their career, there brooded a man fighting for his sanity. "It was like this big black cloud came over me and I couldn't get away," he tells mark Blake
BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
TINA TURNER 1939-2023
MOJO PRESENTS
Touring the States with Fontaines D.C., singer GRIAN CHATTEN lost the plot. Finding it again involved writing an “angry, bitter” song cycle based in an Irish seaside town. But is his first solo album a good or bad omen for his bandmates? “Things got very intense,” he tells TED KESSLER.
YOU GOT ME HUMMIN'
Who knew that in the mountain of snogs Stax Records didn't put out were many as great as those they did? Ouly their writers - until now. This month, a brand new seven-disc box set of unreleased demos and overlooked songs sheds extraordinary new light on memphis's soul explosion, and its prime movers. "Everybody at Stax was there for one reason," they tell Bill DeMain:"to get ahit record!"
ARE YOU HAVING ANY FUN?
Songs and sketches newly emerged from the locked vault of VIVIAN STANSHALL offer new reasons to join the BONZO DOG DOO-DAH BAND one-off’s silly cult. But, as friends and family reveal, behind the hilarity and eccentricity hid a conflicted man transfixed by “foul yellow fright” and addicted to self-sabotage. “He didn’t know when he was brilliant and when he was terrible,” they tell MAT SNOW. Portrait by BARRIE WENTZELL.
GLASTONBURY ’97 BEATS THE MUD
After a run of blazing summers, the West Country’s mother-ofall-festivals Glastonbury returned in June ’97 after a fallow year. And didn’t it rain. And rain. And rain. But, besmirched in mud, the revellers stood firm. With inspirational encouragement from guru Joe Strummer, a feast of music followed, Saturday night headliners Radiohead defeating technical cock-ups to deliver a transcendent, career-landmark performance. “It was a shock to everybody,” say organisers, performers and attendees. “It was one of the golden ones.”
COVER STORY
DANGER IN THE PAST
Sat in a house he hadn’t entered for 40 years, pondering questions that cut to the very meaning of his art, conversations with the writer and musician WARREN ZANES led BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN down perilous paths- back to his post-River crisis, his childhood, and beyond, and formed the core of Zanes’ illuminating new book about Nebraska. As the singer explained, “I needed to know that I could go back and be nobody.”
