GOLD AFTER GOLD
His After The Gold Rush album made Neil Young a star, but it also put him at a fork in the road. Hitting a rich creative seam with the more mellow follow-up, he struck gold again with a classic that remains his finest record: Harvest.
AGE IS JUST A NUMBER; ROCK’N’ROLL IS FOREVER
They might not have achieved the status or sales of the other three bands in the unofficial Big Four of Big Rock, but Uriah Heep have stayed the course for 50-plus years and are currently enjoying a new golden era.
A HEROES' JOURNEY
Too musicianly and too old for the ‘punk’ tag to fit, The Stranglers were nevertheless its bad boys. Hugh Cornwell tells the story of their summer-of-punk-classic second album.
MAGNUM OPUS
It’s a heart-warming story: in 1972 a teenage hopeful’s many-times-rejected demo finds its way into the hands of the maverick young boss of a new label, who decides to give it a go. The eventual result is a commercial and cultural phenomenon: Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells.
