Listened to this tonight on the i-player, excellent interview with Joe Boyd plus lots of great music. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01phglj

Visited his grave yesterday. Beautiful quiet spot. A plectrum left on the headstone and a small pot nearby containing dozens more.

Pete,

Thanks for the heads up, would have missed this completely otherwise. :x

Be quick though as only 4 days left to listen to it!!

Cheers,

Mick

Particularly liked the contributions from Danny Thompson & Dave Pegg, who recorded with Nick.

Joe Boyd is a lovely guy who's kept the ND flame alight through thick & thin, but always slightly air brushes N Drake history.

This is worth a read

late to reply, but listened through the show. He remains a goddam genius of a player, but I never really get on with the dissection stuff.

Nice images of his resting place Guy. Hope the M42 doesn't drown the birdsong.
