RAZZMATAZZ Pulp’s 40 Greatest Songs
What a year it’s been for PULP! From the chart-topping success of More, their first new album for 24 years, to a world tour and now a deluxe reissue for their masterpiece Different Class, Jarvis Cocker and co’s glorious art-pop paeans to the human condition are once again centre stage. To celebrate, the band – Cocker, guitarist Mark Webber, keyboardist Candida Doyle and drummer Nick Banks – talk us chronologically through 40 key songs in Pulp’s uncommon career, from Sheffield (sex city) to Top Of The Pops and a stellar comeback, along the way revealing profound insights into the band’s mercurial working practices. “Wasps sent me on a long tangent,” Cocker confides to Peter Watts. “And wax dummies in Liverpool…”

Welcome back, EVAN DANDO, cleaner, fitter and happier! As he prepares to release the first LEMONHEADS album for 19 years, we hear tales of recovery and redemption, featuring cameos from Keith Richards, Noel Gallagher and Graham Nash, and learn exactly what he thinks of the upcoming memoir that bears his name. “If you want to talk rock’n’roll, I’m your man,” he tells Tom Pinnock. “I’ve read all the books, I’ve heard all the stories…”

HEART OF GOLD
Recording Find El Dorado, a new album of cover versions, has been a revelatory experience for PAUL WELLER. Assembling a connoisseur’s collection of songs including those by The Bee Gees, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Lal & Mike Waterson, Richie Havens and Ray Davies has sent Weller off on an unexpected reverie, triggering memories of The Jam’s early days, his totemic father and manager John, fallen bandmate Rick Buckler and, of course, that time with Ronnie’s pet lion… But there are more urgent, contemporary issues to address, too, including recent record shop swag, movie acting, King Charles’ coronation, the travails of Kneecap, the revived Sex Pistols and Frank Carter, and what’s next for music’s hardest-working legend. “What can I tell you?” he shrugs to Pete Paphides. “It’s how I work and it’s how I relax.”
