Joe Boyd On An Illustrious Music Career

Cerys Matthews

Available for over a year

The producer talks about a Grammy-winning live performance from Aretha Franklin; the mesmeric "one-take-wonder" Nick Drake (muted in the studio because he never missed a note); plugging in Bob Dylan at Newport (and witnessing that clash of cultures and generations first-hand); capturing Jimi Hendrix on film; and how he thought Sandy Denny might eat Fairport Convention for breakfast (she didn't!)
