Disc of the day
Heaven 17 - Penthouse And Pavement
From Sheffield, synth pop and funk to stick it to Thatcher. Currently being played live!
This year's Midas-like tunesmith has done it all, if you can call selling 120 million albums, being a fencing scholar, writing The Monkees' I'm A Believer and singing with Barbra Streisand in the school choir doing it all. Which we would, were it not for the other stuff, including authorship of the jaw-dropping Beautiful Noise and a virile comeback in the shape of 05's 12 Songs and this year's Home Before Dark, both produced by the legend-rehabilitation-service that is Rick Rubin.
MOJO's Classic Songwriter 2008 is... Neil Diamond
