Punk At 50 *AND* Miles Davis on the cover of the new MOJO!
The latest issue of MOJO features a choice of anniversary covers. One celebrates the Golden Jubilee of UK punk’s Year Zero. The other salutes Miles Davis – music’s ultimate re-inventor – who would have been 100 this spring.
Inside the magazine, premier punk historian Jon Savage revisits 1976, while new interviews with the Sex Pistols’ Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock take us back into the trenches. Meanwhile, Miles Davis’ extraordinary life and work prompts an in-depth exploration – from bebop to space-funk and beyond!
Also in the issue: Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir eulogised; Red Hot Chili Peppers’s bass maven Flea flies solo; The Specials’ Terry Hall remembered; Courtney Barnett returns. Plus: The Beach Boys unheard; The Kinks unseen; The Black Crowes; Happy Mondays; Shabaka Hutchings; The Hold Steady; Funkadelic; Faust; NRBQ; Osees; David Bowie’s gaff; all back to Michael Imperioli’s; and more!
This month’s cover CD is 100 Miles: The Classic Sounds Of Miles Davis & Friends. Fifteen giant steps in jazz featuring this month’s co-cover star as band leader or key sideman, with Charlie Parker, Cannonball Adderley, Sonny Rollins, ‘Rubberlegs’ Williams and more!
