REVOLT. REVELATION. REVOLVER!
How do you distil the career of the greatest pop band ever into one track that tops a body of work which has defined the very way in which we think about music? 

101 GREATEST BEATLE SONGS This month MOJO Magazine corrals a legion of Beatles' fans - some rather famous - and get them to vote for their favourite Fab Four track. From R&B rip-snorters to avant-rock freakouts, perfect pop to primal screams, MOJO's 101 Greatest Beatles Songs countdown presents pure Beatle brilliance, picked, pruned and praised to the skies by an all-star panel including Noel Gallagher, Yoko Ono, U2, Ozzy, Paul Weller, Arcade Fire and many more musical gratefuls. 

THE STORY OF REVOLVER 40 years on, how the Beatles wrought rock 'n' roll's first sonic revolution. By Barry Miles, engineer Geoff Emerick, and sleeve artist Klaus Voormann. And! Paul McCartney on the Beatles songs that still make him say "I wrote that?!" 


PLUS... And if that's not enough... Lemmy, godfather of all things black, fast and metal holds forth on Hawkwind, Hendrix and time, the Flaming Lips on the road and off their rockers, and Killing Joke - the acid-soaked tale of the most unnerving band of the 80s.
