In the latest issue of Classic Pop we have an exclusive cover feature interview with Alison Moyet as she makes her much-anticipated return after seven years away with new studio album Key.

Elsewhere, as Lament gets the deluxe reissue treatment, Ultravox look back on its difficult birth and we catch up with Martin Fry who reveals all about life inside ABC ahead of the publication of his forthcoming autobiography.

Ralf Dörper and Michael Mertens have reactivated the Propaganda band name for their first album in 34 years – we talk to the pair about their comeback and why they’re resisting the ‘retro’ tag.

Our latest classic album is ABBA’s The Visitors and we also reappraise The Teardrop Explodes’ Kilimanjaro.

Jimmy Somerville’s back catalogue goes under the microscope for our Album By Album feature, and we catch up with Peter Cox as he readies a career-spanning solo anthology plus The Brand New Heavies as they revisit their Brother Sister LP.

Meanwhile, Classic Pop meets The WAEVE – aka Blur’s Graham Coxon and ex-Pipette Rose Elinor Dougall – as they release their deliciously dark second album City Lights.

In a packed reviews section we give our verdict on new album releases including Alison Moyet, The The, Jamie xx, Fairground Attraction, Propaganda and Betty Boo plus on the reissues front we feature Ultravox, The Police, Oasis, Lightning Seeds, Heaven 17, Toyah and much more. We also check out live shows by Kylie Minogue and Girls Aloud.
