When English singer/songwriter Nick Drake released his ambitious second album - 'Bryter Layter' - in 1971, he all-but-squashed any chance of commercial success by failing to promote it. Three years later the troubled artist was gone. This week's guest, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Paul Chastain (Velvet Crush, The Small Square), helps us unpack this evocative collection of songs featuring musical backing by members of Fairport Convention, The Beach Boys and John Cale among others. Essential listening. Songs discussed in this episode: Tomorrow Is A Long Time (Bob Dylan Cover) - Nick Drake; Hold Me Up - Velvet Crush; Twenty-Third - The Small Square; Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys; Rosie - Fairport Convention; Holocaust - Big Star; Introduction, Hazey Jane II, From The Morning, At The Chime Of A City Clock - Nick Drake; Forever Instant - Lou Barlow (Sentridoh); One Of These Things First - Nick Drake; All I Want To Do - The Beach Boys; Pink Moon, Hazey Jane I - Nick Drake; Heartbeats-Jose Gonzalez; Bryter Layter, The Fly - Nick Drake; Stephanie Says - The Velvet Underground; Poor Boy - Nick Drake; Marianne - Leonard Cohen; Northern Sky, Sunday - Nick Drake; It'll Take A Long Time - Sandy Denny; Baby Face - The Small Square

Welcome. Dave Pegg is the longest serving member of Fairport Convention. Fairport are one of those bands who are a subculture unto themselves. They were formed in 1967 with Dave joining the band in 1969. Fairport split in 1979 but reformed in 1985 and have been active since then. They're still a very hardworking touring band here in the UK. They came through my hometown of Southend earlier this year and I saw my first Fairport show. Frankly, I was shocked how good it was. The band on record tend to be a bit defined by a run of albums they did in the late 60s when Richard Thompson and the late Sandy Denny were in the band. I think a bit of line-up snobbery had contributed to my not having seen them sooner, but alongside Dave, the band still features founding member Simon Nicol. Multi-instrumentalists Ric Sanders and Chris Leslie have been in the band since 1985 and 1996 respectively. The tour I caught them on also saw them reunite with drummer Dave Mattacks who originally joined in 1969 and has had several spells in the band.   A big part of the Fairport culture is their annual music festival Cropredy which is taking place in August this year, so we discuss preparations for this year's event. In addition to Fairport Convention, Dave played with Jethro Tull for a long time, as well as working with Nick Drake on his wonderful “Bryter Later” album. Hope you enjoy our conversation. Instagram: @sendingsignalspodcastTwitter: @signalspodcast

JETHRO TULL 1968/1982 (15) 1980 En 1980 Jethro Tull continúan el «tour» mundial, ya con Dave Pegg (ex-Fairport Convection) como bajista fijo.

Más tarde, en agosto, son David Palmer y John Evan los que causan baja en la banda por motivos y proyectos personales como te adelantábamos en el programa anterior, otras fuentes dicen que fueron despedidos.

This one gets a little heated.

  Dave Pegg has played Bass with one group for half a century: the excellent Fairport Convention. Fairport have one of the most tumultuous histories in British Folk-Rock. But, like many groups that survive that long, they have a spectacularly loyal following, and that now means that they are on a more stable footing than at any time in their history.  But before Fairport, there was Rock, gigging five nights a week in the effervescent 60s Birmingham pubrock scene, a stint with the legendary Ian Campbell Group, and the small matter of 15 years in the bass chair with Jethro Tull. Peggy, as everyone calls him, has a stock of anecdotes... catching a Bjork show with Shadows guitarist Hank Marvin in Sydney, Australia, or booking the 83 year-old Petula Clark for Cropedy Convention. He has an encyclopaedic memory, and can reel off the names of obscure bands he cut his teeth with back in the day.  A great man to pass time with over a pint.  To learn more about the music, or the musicians mentioned in this podcast, head to the companion blog post. 'A Life in Music: Dave Pegg', which you can find at www.radiotogo.com. Everything that Dave touches on is linked there so you can explore to your hearts content. The Lives in Music series celebrates people who have spent a lifetime in music. They may be famous; they may be people who have spent their lives working in the background for the love of it. They all have stories. Lives in Music is a Radio To Go production. The intro and outro music in this series comes from the great bass player Mike Hatton, who you can hear interviewed in series 1, here. 'Everything Changes' is included in his excellent 2019 album 'Bassic Salvation'.  Subscribe! Subscribe to the Podcast through your podcast app to automatically download each episode to your device.

Jethro Tull special with Ian Anderson in conversation with David Eastaugh Jethro Tull are a British rock band formed in Blackpool, Lancashire, in 1967. Initially playing blues rock and jazz fusion, the band later developed their sound to incorporate elements of hard rock and folk rock to forge a progressive rock signature. The band is led by vocalist/flautist/guitarist Ian Anderson, and has featured a revolving door of lineups through the years including significant members such as guitarists Mick Abrahams and Martin Barre, keyboardist John Evan, drummers Clive Bunker, Barriemore Barlow, and Doane Perry, and bassists Glenn Cornick, Jeffrey Hammond, John Glascock, and Dave Pegg. The group first achieved commercial success in 1969, with the folk-tinged blues album Stand Up, which reached No. 1 in the UK, and they toured regularly in the UK and the US. Their musical style shifted in the direction of progressive rock with the albums Aqualung (1971), Thick as a Brick (1972) and A Passion Play (1973), and shifted again to hard rock mixed with folk rock with Songs from the Wood (1977) and Heavy Horses (1978). After an excursion into electronic rock in the early-to-mid 1980s, the band won its first and only Grammy Award with the 1987 album Crest of a Knave. Jethro Tull have sold an estimated 60 million albums worldwide, with 11 gold and five platinum albums among them. They have been described by Rolling Stoneas "one of the most commercially successful and eccentric progressive rock bands". The last works as a group to contain new material were released in 2003, though the band continued to tour until 2011. Anderson said Jethro Tull were finished in 2014; however, in September 2017 Anderson announced plans for a tour to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the band's first album This Was, and then record a new studio album in 2018. The current band line-up includes musicians who have been members of Anderson's solo band since 2012. The band began a world tour on 1 March 2018.

In this episode Dave Pegg talks with Matthew and Andrew about a Christian perspective on the nature and origin of the universe. Is the universe contingent or eternal? What constitutes sufficient cause for our universe? Is ex nihilo a sufficient explanation? What role does logic and philosophy play in unraveling these mysteries? This episode pushes into the corners of Christian and atheist thinking on how our universe came to be.

Olivier Award-winning actress Denise Gough talks about taking on the title role in the TV drama Paula, and how she wants to help change the types of stories being told about women on the small screen. On Saturday Fairport Convention will give a concert 50 years to the minute since their very first. Founding member Simon Nicol, and newcomer Dave Pegg - he joined in 1969 - talk about the early days of the band that launched the careers of Sandy Denny, Richard Thompson and Ashley Hutchings, and discuss their latest album 50:50@50.The identity of Leonardo da Vinci's mother has remained a mystery - long after the identity of his most famous painting, the Mona Lisa, was finally discovered - until now. Previously there have been several theories and a possible first name of Caterina, but nearly six centuries on, Martin Kemp - one of the leading authorities on da Vinci - says he can now reveal who Leonardo's mother was, and argues that it is time to finally cut through the myths that still surround the Mona Lisa and Da Vinci himself. Presenter John Wilson Producer Jerome Weatherald.
