From The Legendary Stardust Cowboy to a Dylan disc worth a million, he is a facilitator of the extraordinary. But did he never want stardom for himself ? “It was never a goal of mine or even an interest,” shrugs T Bone Burnett.

BLOOD BROTHERS

NEU!’s other worldly sound, one of the most influential in rock, was the brainchild of two men: ambient guitar guru Michael Rother and screaming madman drummer Klaus Dinger. As another generation of bands tip their hats on a new tribute LP, MOJO asks how this telepathic unit ended up the best of enemies. “Klaus gave me so many pains,” Rother tells ANDREW MALE. “But I owe him so much.”

Scion of a blues guitar dynasty, his visceral licks and soulful howl tempered by tragedy, M ARCUS KING was always the hot young torchbearer of Southern rock. Now, with Dan Auerbach in his corner, he’s adding something unique to the mix: himself. “Dan’s helped me strip it back to me,” he tells ANDY FYFE.

THE TRUTH IS overrated

JACKIE LEVEN WAS A FIBBER, A FANTASIST, A JUNKIE, AN UNDER-ACHIEVER, A CELTIC FOLK-PSYCH-PUNK-POP ONE-OFF AND ONE OF THE GREAT BRITISH SONGWRITERS. AS HIS SOLO MASTERPIECE GETS ANOTHER DAY IN THE SUN, HIS FRIENDS AND ALLIES REMEMBER AN EXTRAORDINARY FORCE OF NATURE. “HE WAS A BIG FAT LIAR,” THEY TELL JOHN AIZLEWOOD, “BUT ALL HIS LIES WERE TRUE.”

THE LIBERTINES GIVE INDIE A PUNCH UP THE BRACKET

In 2002, who would ride the new garage rock wave and be the British Strokes? Step forward PETE DOHERTY and CARL BARÂT, who in making their fantasies of mythical Albion come true, seized imaginations and gave fans a rare sense of belonging. The Clash’s MICK JONES was besotted enough to produce them, and for a time it was heaven, though catastrophe was waiting in the wings. “We may have been in the middle of a manic episode,” reflect the band and intimates, “but we were definitely on an upswing.”

MUSIC IN DREAMLAND

Reluctant rock star, accidental axe hero, BILL NELSOI helped define musical futurism in BE-BOP DELUXE and beyond. But blazing his own visionary trail has come with side orders of mainstream exclusion and fan bemusement. "That wasn't really my concern," he tells JAMES McNAIR. "I had to do what I had to do."

STRANGE PHENOMENON

When Netflix’s STRANGER THINGS went big on RUNNING UP THAT HILL, no one predicted the avalanche of interest in KATE BUSH’s mid-’80s apotheosis. Now it’s MOJO’s turn to take its shoes off and throw them in the lake, as we dive deep into HOUNDS OF LOVE: its creators, its songs, its lore, and more.
