Inside the Chelsea Hotel, New York’s infamous house of pleasure and pain
Leaving aside for one moment the allegations levelled this week at Bob Dylan, who is accused of grooming and sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl at New York’s Chelsea Hotel in 1965, probably the most famous incident committed in the establishment was immortalised by Leonard Cohen in his song Chelsea Hotel #2 – and surely the most famous celebration in song of a hotel ever – in which he describes being pleasured by the singer Janis Joplin: “I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel, you were ta

Cynthia Erivo received 'wonderful' advice from Bette Midler about The Rose remake
Cynthia Erivo was advised by Bette Midler to not be afraid to "chew the scenery" when she stars in the upcoming remake of The Rose. In the 1979 musical drama, which was loosely based on the life of Janis Joplin, Midler played a self-destructive rock star who struggles to cope with the pressures of her career, and it was announced in June that Harriet star Erivo has signed up to lead a remake.

The tumultuous final years of Janis Joplin – by her brother and sister
On August 14 1970, Janis Joplin went home. Thomas Jefferson High School in Port Arthur, Texas, was holding a 10-year reunion. Joplin rocked up in hippie flares, a scoop-necked T-shirt, a feather boa that she wore as a hat, and her trademark round, colour-tinted sunglasses. At the time, the 27-year-old singer and songwriter was one of the biggest counter-cultural forces in America. An incendiary performer on- and off-stage, she was a hippie style icon and feminist trailblazer who’d made her name

Barry Gibb & Friends - Greenfields: The Gibb Brothers Songbook, Vol. 1 review: Starry cast take on Bee Gee hits
Two decades since the last Bee Gees album, and following the deaths of twin brothers Maurice and Robin Gibb in 2003 and 2012 respectively, oldest brother Barry is finally ensuring that his group’s legacy has the respect it has always deserved. The most prominent victims of a vicious disco backlash following their dominance of the mega-selling Saturday Night Fever soundtrack in 1977, it was too easy to laugh at the jumpsuits, falsettos and all those teeth, as Clive Anderson did 20 years later in

‘He went through women like water’: Leonard Cohen, the unlikely lothario
Leonard Cohen was the master of darkly romantic lyrics. The Canadian singer, who died in 2016 aged 82, imbued songs such as Chelsea Hotel 2, Sisters of Mercy and So Long, Marianne with intense passion that was by turns beautiful, elegiac, bleak and explicit. His desires burned deeply, too. “If you want a lover / I’ll do anything you ask me to,” he sang in his famously drawled baritone on 1988’s I’m Your Man. But a new book about Cohen lays bare just how tangled, busy and occasionally destructive

Alicia Keys interview: ‘We are on a precipice again, and America has a sickness’
When Alicia Keys was seven years old and being driven home to the one-bedroom flat she shared with her mother, she glimpsed a group of sex workers standing on the street corner, their goose-bumped flesh exposed to the harsh air of a New York winter. “I slid down into the cracked leather seat and made a silent agreement with myself,” Keys recalls in her recent, bestselling autobiography More Myself. “I will never be in a situation like that. Half-clothed. Vulnerable. Powerless. Exposed.” Twelve y
