COVER STORY DAVID BOWIE A never-before-published interview with rock's changeling king, plus stories and songs with unusual perspectives from paths less trodden. Mime! Skiing! Darts! Deep cuts! Tony Visconti! And more!

COVERMOUNT CD: CRASH COURSE FOR THE RAVERS The MOJO Bowie companion CD explores his influences and impact, plus work by his key collaborators. Mick Ronson, Jacques Brel, Brian Eno, Ian Hunter, Donnie McCaslin, Holy Holy, Robert Fripp, Maria Schneider and ?l?sk all feature!

THE CLASH Forty years on, how the last gang in town made their boldest move, and paid their record label for the privilege. Enter the 'spliff bunker' for the triple madness of Sandinista!

PJ HARVEY Straight outta Yeovil with the most visceral sound of the early '90s: the story of Polly Jean's still-astonishing debut album, Dry, by the people who made it, and whose lives were changed.

CLIVE DAVIS The Last Of The Record Men? The legendary label boss hopes not. But with Janis, Santana, Springsteen, Aretha and Patti in his portfolio of coups, he's by far the most storied.

X LA's coolest band (says Flea) are back, 40 years since their debut album redefined West Coast punk. "You've got to be brave-slash-stupid to make art," they tell Sylvie Simmons.

DAVID BLUE Joni Mitchell helps MOJO sift fact from legend in the tall tale of the Greenwich Village folkie and Dylan spar who loved, and drugged, and wrote with the best, but never had the luck.

NUBYA GARCIA The eclectic London jazz scene's next superstar is also its most lyrical saxophonist and fiercest critic of tokenism. "I'm not your minority requirement," she assures Jude Rogers.
