Commenting on this year's awards, Mojo editor Phil Alexander says: "This year the nominees really do reflect the very best in modern music. Previous awards bashes have seen everyone from James Brown to the Jesus And Mary Chain recognised, and, trust me, this year's line-up will be equally varied, iconic and inspired. More than anything, The MOJO Honours List 2007 will underline just how much music actually matters in 2007".
