FREE CD! PANIC: 15 tracks of riotous '80s indie insurrection by Orange Juice, Madness, Robert Wyatt, Billy Bragg, Felt, Redskins, Half Man Half Biscuit, Wah! and more!

THE SMITHS: Recorded 25 years ago, The Queen Is Dead is Morrissey and Marr's masterpiece, its power and arrogance forged on the road in 1985. Martin Aston tells the story of a legendary tour, Jon Savage salutes a band in its prime and a cast of stars praise the album, track by track.

PJ HARVEY: Her life went from Beefheart and lamb's testicles to breakdowns, brilliance and dating Nick Cave. John Harris talks to wilful genius Peej about Les Dawson, modern conflict and her jaw-dropping new album.

CAT'S EYES: Not every band debuts in The Vatican. The Horrors' Faris Badwan and

Canadian soprano Rachel Zeffira talk to Andrew Perry about their Italio girl-group romanticism. Jonny Trunk primes us all to their Italian sounds.

JOHN BARRY: His life was 50 times more exciting than the films he scored, and this was the man who soundtracked James Bond. Bob Stanley, David Arnold and Jonny Trunk pay tribute to a great British composer.

JOSH PEARSON: How Lift To Experience's ill-fated holy preacher refound his voice and his faith and got his groove back. Stevie Chick finds him in Tehuacana, Texas (pop. 307), healing his wounds.

DUSTY SPRINGFIELD: For a great white soul singer, working at a legendary American studio, it should have been a match made in heaven. But Dusty In Memphis was the end of something, a farewell, not an arrival. Lois Wilson goes behind the making of a masterpiece.
