Lammo revisits a classic album interview with The Verve's Richard Ashcroft.

The Verve's 3rd LP remains one of the top 20 best selling British albums of all time and walked away with the Brit for Best Album and a nomination for the Mercury Prize. It also spawned the mammoth singles, Bitter Sweet Symphony, Sonnet, The Drugs Don't Work and Lucky Man.

Now, as the band celebrate 20 years since Urban Hymns' release, Steve returns to an interview originally recorded for the album's 15th birthday, in 2012.
