MOJO Specials – New Deluxe Edition With Spotlights On DAVID BOWIE

Posted on by JL

29 June 2026

DAVID BOWIE’s (1947-2016) impact on the world of music was, and continues to be, immeasurable. From glam messiah Ziggy Stardust and the experimental Berlin Years,
to the blond megastar of the Let’s Dance era and beyond to his emotional final album, Blackstar, the singer rarely failed to inspire, challenge and entertain.

But, as creator of nearly 30 studio albums, hundreds of amazing songs, and a raft of live recordings, soundtracks, LPs and compilations, how best to navigate his vast legacy? And what of his myriad film appearances and the many Bowie-themed books?

Written by MOJO’s team of experts, Bowie Essentials tells you everything you need to know to piece together your ultimate Bowie collection. As well as reappraising each of his studio LPs, we profile the Mod and R&B singles he made in the mid-’60s, and make sense of the flood of live recordings, box sets and rarities compilations that have appeared since his untimely death in 2016.

This issue is illustrated throughout with dozens of rare and iconic photographs,
Bowie Essentials is an indispensable purchase for all Bowie connoisseurs and
music fans”.

On June 16, indie icons THE SMITHS‘s
masterpiece The Queen Is Dead turns 40.

In this month’s UNCUT cover story, the band’s Mike Joyce (62 now)

“On a personal level, being in The Smiths was massively intense. That feeling between four people in a band doesn’t happen very often. With The Smiths, it was everything — the four
of us, every single day. We all understood what we had, and that’s what set us apart from
any other band I’d been in.”

The Queen Is Dead

to Talk Talk’s magnum opus Spirit Of Eden, plus more new interviews with The Lemon Twigs,

ROXY MUSIC In 5 Magazine Covers

Posted on by JL

British icons ROXY MUSIC were crème de la crème on the showy, flashy, glittery
glam rock scene with their first spectacular run between 1970 and 1976 with 4 terrific
longplayers. Their flamboyant, androgynous costumes and makeup were part of their
eye-popping identity.

Eccentric keyboardist/musical orchestrator Brian Eno, who looked like a sort
pop star from outer space left after 2LPs and started a remarkable career as a
producer (U2, David Byrne, Paul Simon, David Bowie, John Cale, and many more)
and a solo/collaborative artist.

A first reunion occurred between 1978 and 1983,
a 2nd one between 2001 and 2011, with 3 more
albums added to the first 4 ones.

The now 80-year-old Casanova frontman Bryan Ferry had
the most notable solo career of all RM members with 16 LPs.

Let’s have a look back at history with 5 magazine covers.

MOJO The Collectors’ Series: New Edition With BOB DYLAN ESSENTIALS

Posted on by JL

10 March 2026

When BOB DYLAN inked a deal with Columbia Records back in 1961, many people found the label’s decision to sign a middle-class white boy, styling himself as a careworn blues and folk singer, faintly absurd. Yet within a few years, the young Dylan would be hailed
as a prophet and revolutionise music in ways few could ever have dared to imagine.

His appeal was cemented by his visionary lyrics, and the images and wisdom they contain have given fans and scholars plenty to muse upon for the last 55 years. Meanwhile, music has flowed from him like an unstoppable river, each new phase delivering more timeless classics.

Which is where Bob Dylan Essentials comes in, written by MOJO’s team of experts,
this sumptuous 132-page bookazine is designed to guide you through the maze of
Dylan material out there.

Album by album, shedding new light on Bob’s songcraft and musicianship, and pulling
no punches when it comes to determining what’s indispensable, enjoyable, worth serious investigation or simply warrants a cursory spin.

We also look at Dylan-related films and documentaries,
and recommend the very finest in his literature.
