Classic Pop | November 2025
In the latest issue of Classic Pop we have an exclusive career-
spanning interview with cover stars Jim Kerr and Charlie Burchill of Simple Minds as they unveil a joint autobiography
and 40th anniversary edition of the band’s landmark album, Once Upon A Time.
We also catch up with Soft Cell’s Marc Almond and Dave Ball
who take us into the dark heart of the duo’s subversive second studio album The Art Of Falling Apart as the twisted
masterpiece gets the deluxe expanded treatment, while OMD’s Andy McCluskey talks us through the synth-pop group’s US breakthrough LP Crush ahead of an extras-packed reissue.
Meanwhile, CP jumps onboard Prince’s psychedelic bus to get
the inside story of Around The World In A Day and Roland Gift
recalls the globe-conquering days of Fine Young Cannibals as
he prepares to play their songs live in a new string of solo
shows.
For our latest classic album feature, we see how Eurythmics
joined forces with some A-list collaborators for fourth LP Be
Yourself Tonight. Elsewhere, Shaun Ryder tells us how he’ll be
celebrating the 30 th birthday of Black Grape’s It’s Great When
You’re Straight… Yeah and reveals the Happy Mondays’ future
plans. We also take a deep dive into the back catalogue of Mariah Carey for our Album By Album feature and tell the story of It Bites’ debut LP, The Big Lad In The Windmill.
In our packed reviews pages we give our verdict on new
album releases including Soulwax, Kylie Minogue, Chrissie
Hynde & Pals, The Lemonheads, The Charlatans, Björk, Tanita Tikaram, The Last Dinner Party and The Orb plus
there’s a comprehensive reissues section featuring Frankie
Goes To Hollywood, Simple Minds, Soft Cell, Prince And
