Classic Pop Issue 104 (May 2026) Duran Duran

As The Wedding Album and Thank You get the reissue treatment, in Classic Pop issue 104 we have a world exclusive interview with Duran Duran who look back on their 90s comeback LP and its divisive follow-up – plus, the band reveal all about forthcoming brand new music.

Elsewhere, we also have must-read interviews with Tori Amos who returns with politically-charged double album In Times Of Dragons, the beatific Ziggy Marley who tells us why he’s resonating on a different frequency to his peers, plus Thomas Dolby as he looks back on his 80s golden age.

Meanwhile, we revisit OMD’s career-saving Junk Culture for our latest classic album feature and shine a light on Mark Hollis’ eponymous solo LP.
