Charlie Landsborough, singer - songwriter talks about his career

After his mother died when he was 12, Charlie Landsborough went off the rails and embraced a life of petty crime, spending two months behind bars when he was 18. He learned his lesson and turned his life around, embracing music, though he didn't find fame until much later. An appearance on RTÉ's Kenny Live in 1995 launched his career in Ireland and hi song What Colour is the Wind became a hit here. In this podcast, Landsborough speaks to Róisín Ingle about his almost famous moments with The Beatles and Roy Orbison. He also talks about spirituality, booze and why he is glad he didn't find fame until his 50s. Landsborough tours Ireland every year and is hitting the road here again next week, beginning in Derry on January 15 and ending in Drogheda on the 28th.

November 2017: British country and folk musician Charlie Landsborough started performing professionally in the 1970s but it wasn’t until he appeared on an Irish TV show in 1994 with ‘What Colour Is The Wind’ that divine intervention opened doors onto a musical career that has spanned decades. Now he chats to me about his numerous music awards, being inducted into the British Country Music Hall of Fame, and about sharing his childhood with a monkey! #CharlieLandsborough #Country #Folk #interview

The Royal Baby……in case you didn’t know Kate and Wills have had a baby…there was nothing else on the news for three days….even on the day before they were babbling on about nothing…Nicholas Witchall talked for 20 minutes about absolutely nothing at all….every time I see him I think of the time he asked Charles a question (I think it was in Switzerland) and Charles whispered to William “I can’t stand that man”…trouble is his mike was still on…oops!!....how you can get weeks of news out of “William and Kate have had a baby…it’s name is George”….is beyond me…not only here but worldwide…GET A LIFE !!!! ....bought a second class stamp the other day….50p……that’s 10 bob to post a second class letter….are the post office having a laugh?...what was it in our day tuppence ha’penny?...and the health and safety bods have been at it again…killer flip flops…you can’t wear flip flops for work in case they get stuck in a lift door….but you CAN wear them when you are putting a naked flame into a Chinese lantern….I understand Spain and France don’t have a health and safety executive?...if you trip over the pavement look where you’re going…am I right?....also an old age pensioner was in the news when she was at the seaside and took her teeth out to eat a banana…and a seagull swooped down and pinched her dentures….a seagull with teeth….that would be worth seeing. The train crash in Spain has been filling the news here…it looks terrible…it is alleged that it was going too fast….but it will all come out eventually….they showed the actual crash…very upsetting….what’s the take over there? The James Burton Concert went well….I was pleased with my set…the band were brilliant and old James was well on form…..he also backed Pete Wylie and Dave Nash….I reminded Charlie Landsborough of his Mersey Royal days and we had a good laugh….he did the last half of the show…great guy…..also on the bill were the Liverpool Ukelele Orchestra…Cliff Roberts,Vince Earl,Nick Crouch and Geoff Nugent and Dean Johnson….Billy Butler MC’d it all and was well on form. ... spent the rest of the week in Anglesey and enjoyed some great weather….Monty Lister and myself once interviewed a guy called Ian Skidmore who ran “Radio Brysiencyn” from his house….I’ve even got a R.B. tie…we have our caravan in Brynsiencyn so I made a few enquiries in the pub….apparently Ian moved on and eventually passed away…fascinating bloke though.

We chatted about Don's Doowop record on the internet programme With Doowop Joe Conroy before moving to The Mathew Street Festival which has now been re-named - The Liverpool International Music Festival….the old days of bands hammering out Merseybeat seem to be over…now it’s tribute bands from all over the place. There will be a few big stages around the waterfront and no doubt the pubs around the area will have live bands….it’s a great day out for those into it all…I have done it in the past but lugging gear over peoples heads to get to the stage in the Cavern doesn’t do a lot for me…..but the tourists love it….I found an old video of a gig I did at the Cavern…I stood in for The Black Knights and played bass ….with a mate of mine who stood in on guitar….and neither of us can remember it….sad or what. The UK is the most obese country in the world….according to the media….so the government are putting a tax on fattening drinks etc…..making a few more bob for the MPs expenses….I can’t see why they can’t bring DOWN the price of healthy food and drink…HMM…..that obviously wouldn’t work because then they wouldn’t be ripping us off. The new mansion tax has come under fire…..the rich should pay more because they are rich….the way I see this is that it seems all those complaining seem to be the ones who don’t want to get off their backsides….to get rich someone somewhere along the line has worked for it in most cases so in I personally don’t see why they should subsidise the scroungers. Everyone’s moaning that the Poles are taking all our jobs but they had a farmer on and he said he offers jobs to the British citizens first but they don’t want to work…they want to knock off at three…and last about two days…whereas the Poles work from 8 til 6 without complaint…THAT’s why they get the jobs….they should sort out the benefit system here …and soon. Don's in the throes of preparing for the James Burton Concert in July celebrating the Aloha from Hawaii concert he did with Elvis….it’s over three nights and sounds good…there are some good acts…Suzi Quatro,Liverpool Express,Charlie Landsborough and a string of others…Don's doing a Ricky Nelson set with JB….so you get the guitar solos as per record…this will be Don's fourth gig with him. Always a buzz to play with your idols….he’ll have to get practising.
