Q  |  30th Birthday Special
Thirty years ago, a new music magazine appeared on the shelves. One of our greatest ever songwriters was on the cover: Paul McCartney (not a Sir at that point) and so was Lenny Henry. Three decades later, we talk to some of the architects of these masterworks including Bono, Johnny Marr, Nicky Wire, Kasabian, Brett Anderson and Liam Howlett, picking through the personal
