I haven't been able to take more than three steps down the street without being mobbed by hysterical fans screaming that they'd seen me with Maddy Prior in her Electric Proms concert shown on BBC 4 last Friday. This was a thirty minute selection from her gig at Cecil Sharp House the previous day. There will be a one hour version broadcast on November 21st, also on BBC 4, and this very day Mike Harding's programme on Radio 2 will be dedicated to Maddy's concert, with short interviews with some of those present.
Anyone who missed it will be kicking themselves - never has a musician been caught looking downwards for so much of a performance on British television. Loads of great shots of the top of my head, specially polished for the occasion by seasoned professionals.
(Note to self: must check the balance of the JK toupé fund.) |
