Plus we also chat with Rick about his brand new studio album A Gallery Of The Imagination and his impending live tour.

Also this issue we chat with Todd Rundgren about his epic and varied career, King Crimson ruminate over how they adapted to tackle the 80s, Michael Rother looks back over his work as a member of Neu! and Jim McCarty talks about his time as a member of Renaissance and Illusion!
