This celebratory issue will be released with a choice of two covers, with one featuring lead singer Robert Plant and the other featuring guitar legend Jimmy Page.
Uncut features interviews with the stars talking about their careers and future plans. In the interviews, the pair lift the lid on the tensions between them following their win at this year's Grammys where they picked up lifetime achievement awards along with Janis Joplin and Jerry Lee Lewis.
The Robert Plant cover will be a 13-track CD covermount featuring guitar greats including Jimmy Page, along with Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix.
The Jimmy Page cover will include a 15-track CD of classic tracks chosen by Robert Plant himself, including Scott Walker, Roy Harper and Blind Lemon Jefferson.
Also in this month's issue will be the story of Detroit's 70s proto-punk movement, film by film with Woody Allen, an obituary tribute to Hunter S Thompson and the inside story on the restoration of director Sam Fuller's lost WWII combat epic 'The Big Red One'
The May issue of Uncut goes on sale today, priced £4.20.
