It was the last big weekend of the year, but it was the best and this was a highlight. I’m not going to say Bob Dylan is as good as Scott McTominay, that would be crazy - but he could definitely lob Schmeichel from the halfway line.

Trash collecting with Lonnie Holley, Steppenwolf covers in a kickboxing gym... MOJO reports from Utrecht’s annual celebration of music’s outer reaches.

Kentucky songwriter marvels at motherhood on ninth album, Real Warmth. Read MOJO's review and the track listing in full.

Suede were magnificent at the Royal Festival Hall last night - something really moving about a set that can include Disintegrate and So Young and have them both make perfect sense.

I literally live on a council estate in Archway. I have a mezuzah on my door, my next-door neighbours are Iranian. It's totally completely fine? Sorry, actually, it's nice. We have little chats. Take in each other's parcels. They bring me delicious iftar during Ramadan. I lend them my garden hose.

“We just sat Nick down with his guitar and wallop – he did that…” Out today, The Making Of Five Years Left features never-before-heard recordings and sessions for Nick Drake’s debut album. Drake’s engineer and the set’s compilers speak to MOJO about uncovering the magic of the songwriter at work:

In the unlikely event anyone notices, somebody has opened up an Instagram page using my name, bio and profile picture - it's not me, I don't have Instagram and I'm unlikely ever to say "speaking of great content, don't forget to check out my latest writings".

“Forster is writing some of the best songs of his life… ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐” Former Go-Between Robert Forster lets his imagination run wild on what might be his most joyous album to date.

My turn to do the @mojomagazine.bsky.social How To Buy column, and I want to know your favourite TROPICALIA LPs. Send me suggestions and citations, and we'll print the best ones. I think we keep it tight inside the 1968-1970 timeframe, but give me reasons why we shouldn't (not "I like Transa best").
