We spot Will “Slapper” Smith’s biggest mistake at the Oscars and salute Ben Sidran’s foot

Will Smith did something at the Academy Awards which showed what he cared about most - did you notice it too? Our blow-by-blow account of the moment everyone missed. * Plus … a man who has 25 Big Country albums (and other unlikey acts whose records we obsessively collect). * Is there any band still going after 50 years with more original members than Roxy Music? * The enduring joy of Joe Jackson’s Look Sharp! and Night And Day. * And the kind of thing they let you put on an album cover 50 years ago.
