Summary

THE LOST IMMORTALS – EXPANDING YOUR MUSICAL HORIZONS

Ep 122 Sunday 25th July (AKA Roy’s 65th)

on Burgess Hill Community Radio 103.8FM with Roy Stannard and Matthew Staples

On this landmark show we explored the lost genius of Daniel Johnston across 3 tracks written by the man himself, one performed by him. We checked out Foy Vance and the links between him, Pete Townsend and Rachel Fuller – and some bloke called Ed Sheeran.

Three of the best guitar players in the history of the cosmos turned up and plugged in – Gallagher, Moore and Bourgie – sadly not as a band in their own right. We shared Cigarettes After Sex – the band – and The Common Linnets, the Dutch group who nearly won Eurovision but have gone on to become one of Americana’s finest exponents. Plus two modern, ultra cool examples of how steel drums can enhance your music.

The extended version is nearly 3 hours long on Mixcloud and Spotify

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
