WELCOME TO CLASSIC POP
IF YOU WANT A PERFECT MISSION STATEMENT FROM A BAND, THEN YOU WON’T GO TOO FAR WRONG WITH A QUOTE FROM ANNIE LENNOX IN OUR COVER FEATURE THIS MONTH. “YOU CAN DO EXTREME THINGS – SURREAL AND EMOTIONAL, ABSTRACT AND AVANT-GARDE – IN THE NAME OF POP MUSIC.” AND THEREBY HANGS AT LEAST SOME OF THE ATTRACTION OF ONE OF THE GREATEST ACTS THAT THE UK HAS EVER PRODUCED.

We Two Are ONE
RECOGNISED AS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MALE-FEMALE DUO OF ALL TIME, EURYTHMICS DOMINATED THE 80S WITH THEIR SHINY ELECTRONIC SOUL AND R&B-INFLECTED POP-ROCK. WITH THE RE-RELEASE OF THEIR BACK CATALOGUE ON VINYL, ANNIE LENNOX AND DAVE STEWART TALK CANDIDLY TO CLASSIC POP, IN THIS WORLD EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW, ABOUT THEIR RELATIONSHIP, THEIR MUSIC, THEIR 40-YEAR CAREER, AND THE FUTURE OF THEIR PARTNERSHIP.
CLASSIC ALBUM SWEET DREAMS (ARE MADE OF THIS)
STIFLED AND FRUSTRATED BY THEIR TIME IN THE TOURISTS, DAVE STEWART AND ANNIE LENNOX PACKED THEIR BAGS TO FORM EURYTHMICS. WITH A NEW SOUND AND A NEW IMAGE, THEIR SECOND ALBUM BROUGHT THEM SUCCESS BEYOND THEIR WILDEST DREAMS.
KEEPING IT REAL
BEFORE THEIR BITTER SEPARATION, UB40 WERE BRITAIN’S MOST CELEBRATED REGGAE OUTFIT. NOW, WITH TWO ACTS ADOPTING THE MONIKER AND A DIVIDE TOO DEEP TO RECONCILE, UB40 FEATURING ALI, ASTRO & MICKEY, TELL CLASSIC POP ALL ABOUT THE SOUR SPLIT, THEIR NEW ALBUM AND WHY REGGAE IS A REAL LABOUR OF LOVE…
THE LOW DOWN
HE WAS THE BEDSIT BARD WITH A NEAT LINE IN WITHERING ONE-LINERS, WHO DISSOLVED THE SMITHS – THE TRUE GODFATHERS OF BRITPOP – FOR A SOLO CAREER THE BACKBITERS SAID WOULD NEVER LAST. HOW MORRISSEY HAS REVELLED IN PROVING THEM ALL WRONG.
He came, He SAW, He conquered!
AS PART OF THE LEGENDARY PRODUCTION TRIO STOCK, AITKEN AND WATERMAN, MIKE STOCK COULD EASILY – AND INDEED DOES – LAY CLAIM TO BEING ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL SONGWRITERS OF ALL TIME. HE JOINS CLASSIC POP TO LOOK BACK OVER SAW’S EXTRAORDINARY ASSAULT ON THE POP CHARTS. “AS A BAND, I RECKON MATT AITKEN AND I HAVE BEEN MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN THE BEATLES,” HE SAYS BEFORE CLARIFYING: “IT’S NOT A QUALITY STATEMENT, JUST THE SHEER NUMBERS!”
