Welcome to the new Uncut: Keith Richards at 80, The Doors, Essential 2024 Preview and more

HAVE A COPY SENT STRAIGHT TO YOUR HOME IN ‘The Titanic Sails At Dawn’, his 1976 polemic for the NME, Mick Farren harangued the previous decade’s rock’n’roll trailblazers who by now, he believed, had become part of the very establishment they had once rebelled against. “Did we ever expect to see The Rolling Stones on News At Ten,” railed Farren, “just like they were at the Badminton Horse Trials or the Chelsea Flower Show?” The Stones, of course, have weathered such barbs with ease down the decades.

Peter Gabriel i/o

Nowadays, so much of culture is available on demand that it is like being delivered art from a firehose. So it was an unusual move of Peter Gabriel to drip feed us his latest album – his first original studio LP in two decades – online over the course of 2023; releasing just a single track every four weeks.
