Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Remember bootleg LPs? Whatever the reason, A&M has decided to grant a rather belated official release to this two-hour concert recording from San Francisco in 1989, around the time of Yellow Moon.

New Orleans' finest are a belting live band, and one simply can't have too many versions of Aaron Neville dripping honey all over "Tell It Like It Is". The only problem is the date: those cheesy keyboard-voicings make the "Rock'n'Roll Encore Medley" sound like a cruise ship. Then Aaron warbles "Amazing Grace" and you're happy again.
