Uli Jon Roth is a pioneer, a visionary, and explorer who has put his fifty year career in the service of art and music. A key member of The Scorpions during their rise in the 1970s, he's also one of the most influential rock guitarists of all time. Preparing an assault on the U.K. with an extensive tour, he's also looking back with the reissue of a brace of Electric Sun albums. We sat down with Uli for an extended chat about his time with the German rock giants, the evolution of his playing, and his memories of the bombastic 1970s. In trance; Eamon O'Neill.

A Rewind Festival mainstay and one of its favourite acts, Nik Kershaw has been coming to the festival for over a decade now. Once tired of being tied to his nostalgia-inducing mega hits including 'Wouldn't it be Good' and 'The Riddle', he now embraces them. "They're old friends, the hits", he explains as we sit down for a chat; "you just come to realise that if it wasn't for those songs, you won't be doing any of this". Judging by the reaction he receives on the banks of the Thames in Henley, his fans are clearly delighted he feels this way. Talking success, and difficult guitar solos, we caught up with Nik Kershaw. Near a tree by a river; Eamon O’Neill.
