We head back to a hot London summer at the end of the hippy era, as Jethro Tull’s “Nureyev with a flute” Ian Anderson talks vividly about Roy Harper, folk versus rock, musicians versus the music biz, and much more. Plus Andrew Male and Danny Eccleston dig MOJO’s compilation of unheard Stax demos, and yet more great Arthur Russell finds.
