Where is the form to vote for the best, and worst, of 2007? or am I too soon to find it on the site?
Amy Winehouse, can't stand her myself, but she has been in the news a lot this year, so I guess it was pretty obvious that she would make the front cover of the 2007 review issue!
Loved the Stax cd, can not stop playing it, more please!

I would love to see MOJO magazine cease to be devoted to helping the industry shift units and become a publication which offers genuine criticism of subjects under review.
The way things are going the mag. should be given away by the two main High St. retailers because it is more for them and their ilk than for the consumer.

Hi, With reference to your January edition.
Within your Acton Town Hall, Joe Strummer Tribute review/article there is an error!
You have a photo of Mick Jones and my goodself singing, you have named me as "bingo"!!!
Tis a case of mistaken identity, for I am Chris, singer and rythmn guitarist with The Infidels!!!
Please could you amend the error and apologise to Mr Jones for my having stolen his microphone!
Mick you are......my guitar hero!
Chris, The Infidels, Lincoln England

RE: Stephen
That "talentless mare" has an album approaching 5 x platinum in the UK making it the biggest selling album of 2007.
So that's what she's doing on the front cover.

Dear people at mojo, you made me very sad by not finding a place for the Into the Wild soundtrack anywhere in your top lists of the year. It is by far one of the top ten albums released this year, with Eddie Vedder`s voice at its best. I guess i could have seen that coming from the review you gave it. Otherwise your mag is tops. Thankyou for listening.

Stephen is just being a wanker, a knobend, a twit, etc. He kmows bloody well what she's doing on the cover, but he's being the "contrarian".
And Daniel, sales don't equate to talent; Christ just one listen to B. Spears confirms that.
Amy happens to be extremely talented --
hopefully THAT'S why she's on the cover.
