"Lookaftering" Well, we talked about doing the thing and the fact of the matter is, the British-born Vashti Bunyan started doing the thing pretty early. In the 1960s, while studying at the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art at Oxford, Bunyan was expelled for focussing more on making music than on drawing. So she went home and started making music. When her mother's hip actress friend got the 19 year old Bunyan a face to face with the Stones' manager Andrew Loog Oldham, he was properly charmed and handed her the Stones track "Some Things Just Stick In Your Mind" to record. And so she did. Backed by her own song "I Want To Be Alone," "Some Things" featured Jimmy Page on guitar, but it didn't turn as many heads as Bunyan had hoped. She did another single, sang on a Twice As Much album, and appeared in a documentary about swinging London. So the ball was rolling. Bunyan and her fella hit the road in search of an artistic community and she ended up Holland, The Scottish Highlands and the Cumbrian Mountains. Her journey informed the songs for her debut album Just Another Diamond Day, which is fabulous, but was too fabulous for the time it was released. Look, sometimes the world just has to catch up and it did. But it took 30 years. Bunyan was so disappointed by Diamond Day not really troubling the charts, she hung up her guitar, lived in the Scottish Borders in cottages occupied by the Incredible String Band and raised three kids, putting her music career on mothballs, seemingly for good. The world was quietly catching up however, and Diamond Day had sneakily become a cult classic. It was re-released in 2000 and with Joanna Newsom and Devendra Banhart championing her work, Bunyan was introduced to a whole new generation, who adored her. Since then, she's recorded two more albums--Lookaftering and Heartleap--and she's appeared on albums by Banhart and Animal Collective, she appeared at London's Royal Festival Hall with The Heritage Orchestra () as part of Massive Attack's Meltdown (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meltdown_(festival)), she wrote a memoir, and was the subject of a full-length documentary. So she's back. Yes. No. I mean, sort of. But I also mean yes. Confused? You won't be for long. To commemorate Lookaftering's 20th anniversary, DiCristina Records is releasing an expanded edition of Bunyan's sophomore album and it's packed with demos, live stuff, fabulous liner notes, lyric sheets and paintings by Bunyan's daughter. Bunyan's music is hard to classify--it's bedroom pop that isn't pop and wasn't recorded in a bedroom but it's got this hushed and fractured quality that's filled with mysterious power. This conversation is a real treat and in the end, there's an unexpected walk across the rooftops that's really cool.

British singer-songwriter Vashti Bunyan is celebrating her 80th birthday with a new edition of her 2005 record ‘Lookaftering’, including added demos, live versions and sleeve notes from its producer, Max Richter. The lyric booklet features paintings by Bunyan’s daughter, which beautifully brings to life the wistful, dreamy tracks. Robert Bounds sits down with Vashti Bunyan to discuss the cult reception to her work and how a new generation breathed new life into her music.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I've wanted to do this episode for a long time; not just the subject matter, but my guests as well. Today I'm talking about making sophomore albums with Vashti Bunyan and Lucy Kruger; two people who have vastly different experiences making their second albums. Lucy has done it twice with her bands Medicine Boy and Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys. But they were both very different approaches from one another.  Vashti took a different route. She waited 35 years to make her sophomore album. In fact, she said that, between the disappointing reception to her debut and the extended gap between the two albums, her second album, Lookaftering, didn't feel like a second album at all. This was a fun topic, but I had been looking for a reason to have Lucy & Vashti on together for years. And the reissue of Vashti's second album, Lookaftering, complete with live or demo versions of almost every song on the album, was the perfect reason. And we go a bit beyond sophomore albums because that's what happens when you're enjoying a casual conversation. Check out Lucy Kruger's latest album, A Human Home, on Bandcamp or wherever you get music. Follow her @lucy_kruger to keep up with her. Pick up Vashti Bnyan's reissue of her sophomore album, Lookaftering, on Fat Cat records, Bandcamp, or wherever you buy music. Follow her on Facebook or on Instagram @vashtibunyan.

My irregular series on artists, albums or movies that were either denied classic status at the time or who have been forgotten from the conversation since. Here a look a 60s UK folk music genius who branched out into astonishing music in the 1970s (see also Nick Drake, John Fay, Vashti Bunyan...). A walk through his life and career through the lens of four totemic albums from that period, including the absolutely essential for anyone releases, Solid Air (10/10) and One Word (10/10).

In one of the most remarkable music stories of our time, Vashti Bunyan's terrifying and beautiful experience as part of a travelling community set the light for her debut album Just Another Diamond Day in 1970 - an album that wasn't truly discovered until 30 years later. Now about to reissue her second wonderful album Lookaftering, she reflects on her life with forgiveness, surprise and gratitude. Photo: Christopher Fernandez Learn more about your ad choices.

“Diamond Day” is a charming 1970s folksong by English singer-songwriter Vashti Bunyan. The lyrics about a sweet family farm inspired Caitlin Carnahan, today's guest, to borrow its title for her business, Diamond Day Bouquet. The farm specializes in unique and old-fashioned, garden-style flowers grown organically and with love.

C'est au Royaume de Belgique que se pose la #SessionLive avec 2 ovnis, Thomas Jean Henri dit Cabane et la violoniste Catherine Graindorge. (Rediffusion) Notre 1er invité est l'artiste belge Cabane pour la sortie de l'album Brûlée.Cabane est le projet du musicien et photographe belge Thomas Jean Henri. Après un premier album Grande Est la Maison, Thomas Jean Henri revient aujourd'hui avec la deuxième partie d'une œuvre qu'il construit comme un triptyque. Le deuxième album de Cabane réunit les voix des Anglais Kate Stables (This Is The Kit) et Sam Genders (Tunng). Un casting dont il rêvait depuis longtemps et qui est porté au service de chansons aux frontières de la folk et de la pop orchestrale. Loin des humeurs du monde, Brulée sera un abri pour les amoureux de Nick Drake et de Vashti Bunyan ou encore de toutes celles et ceux touché·es par la délicatesse de Mark Hollis, Sufjan Stevens ou Robert Wyatt.C'est en 2015 que Thomas Jean Henri a posé les fondations de Cabane, un projet transdisciplinaire où il y associe musique, photo et vidéo.Le single Today a été accompagné par une exposition abritant et amplifiant le clip de ce premier extrait de l'album. L'expo a été accueillie par la galerie dédiée à la photographie, L'Enfant Sauvage, à Bruxelles. Thomas y a présenté les 365 clichés qui, montés bout à bout, jour après jour, constituent le clip de Today. « Du dimanche 9 janvier 2022 au lundi 9 janvier 2023, j'ai mené un rituel photographique en me rendant tous les jours à la place Poelaert à Bruxelles, à 3,8 km de chez moi, pour y photographier le ciel avec mon appareil argentique moyen format. Nous vivons tous les mêmes journées… Mais en gardons-nous les mêmes souvenirs ? ». Thomas y a proposé à ses visiteurs de repartir avec une photo, en échange d'un souvenir écrit de leur main. Pour nous faire patienter, Thomas nous a distillé tout au long de l'automne 2023 une série de titres inédits issus des sessions d'enregistrement de son premier album (The unreleased series Pt.1).Titres interprétés au grand studio- Today Live RFI- All we could do, extrait de l'album- Dead Song Live RFI.Line Up : Thomas Jean Henri, guitare, Kate Stables, chant.Son : Mathias Taylor et Benoît Letirant.► Album Brûlée (Cabane Rd 2024)YouTube - Instagram. Puis nous recevons la violoniste Catherine Graindorge pour la sortie de l'album Songs for the Dead.Après son passionnant EP en duo de 2022 avec Iggy Pop The Dictator, la compositrice et musicienne belge Catherine Graindorge revient avec un album d'ensemble lumineux où elle collabore avec Simon Huw Jones (And Also theTrees). Des chansons instrumentales et vocales sur la vie, l'amour et la mort. Inspiré par les mythologies et les élégies des Grecs aux Beats. Histoires et mythes. Ils se répandent comme des rivières dans nos vies, nos cultures. Certains sont anciens, d'autres plus récents, mais tous contribuent à nous façonner, à nous guider et à nous consoler sur les chemins de la vie, de l'amour et de la mort. Ils ont un pouvoir tranquille, et c'est ce que Catherine Graindorge explore dans son nouvel album Songs for the Dead. Un nouvel album en hommage au poème ‘A Dream Record' d'Allen Ginsberg « Le poème m'a touché, il m'a fait réfléchir sur l'art, la vie et la réalité, et j'ai donc décidé de construire l'album autour de lui ».Dans cette œuvre, Allen Ginsberg, rêveur, rend visite à Joan, l'épouse décédée de l'écrivain William Burroughs, qui l'a tuée alors qu'elle tentait prétendument d'imiter Guillaume Tell et de tirer un verre sur sa tête. Le couple rit et parle d'amis communs comme si elle était encore en vie. Mais la réalité de la tombe revient et le rêve s'évanouit.« Je ne savais rien de Joan Vollmer, mais le poème dit tout de nos vies. Quelque chose peut arriver et il n'y a pas de retour, sauf dans nos rêves, lorsque les morts viennent nous rendre visite. Comme dans le mythe d'Orphée et d'Eurydice. Dans les yeux d'Orphée, Eurydice semble vivante un instant, mais un seul regard suffit pour qu'elle disparaisse dans le monde des morts. Il veut la ramener à la vie par l'amour qu'il lui porte ».Titres interprétés au grand studio- Joan Live RFI- The Dictator, extrait duo avec Iggy Pop voir le clip - Orpheus Head, extrait de l'album- The Unvisited Garden Live RFI.Line Up : Cyrille de Haes, contrebasse, Catherine Graindorge, alto + voix.Son : Mathias Taylor, Benoît Letirant.► Album Songs for the Dead (Glitterbeat 2024).YouTube - Facebook.

This week on Transmissions, we're sitting down with a genuine legend: Joe Boyd, author of And The Roots of Rhythm Remain: A Journey Through Global Music, out September 24 from ZE Books. On the front cover of the book Brian Eno—a venerated saint in the Aquarium Drunkard canon—declares: “I doubt I'll ever read a better account of the history and sociology of popular music than this one.”  Joe Boyd's career is the stuff of myth. As a producer, he's worked with a murder's row of collaborators, including Pink Floyd, Nick Drake, Fairport Convention, R.E.M., Richard and Linda Thompson, Incredible String Band, Vashti Bunyan, 10,00 Maniacs, and many more. In 2006, Boyd released a memoir, White Bicycles – Making Music in the 1960s, which documented his time in the studio during that decade, but And the Roots of Rhythm Remain casts an even wider net, exploring the overlap of musical cultures and the complicated, human negotiations that undergird creative synthesis.  As you'll hear in the early part of our talk, Joe played a pivotal role Transmissions host Jason P. Woodbury's music writing journey. In 2008, Woodbury reviewed a Nick Drake box set for the sorely missed Tiny Mix Tapes. The piece also included an email interview with Boyd, whose responses were insightful and in-depth—an experience that inspired Woodbury to chase after interviews. So this conversation picks up the thread some decade and a half later, detailing not only Boyd's new book, but also his experiences with Nick Drake, Fairport Convention, Richard Thompson, Sandy Denny, Vashti Bunyan, and many more adventures.

When I started this show five years ago, I made a short list of artists I wanted to feature.  Near the top of that list was the British musician Vashti Bunyan. Vashti Bunyan released her beautiful album “Just Another Diamond Day” in 1970, and it was almost immediately buried in time.  She'd had her fair share of disappointment in the music business and walked away from it altogether, until some three decades later when people like me discovered her music for the first time.  Suddenly, Vashti was in demand, and her music career was back on track.  In her recent memoir, “Wayward” from White Rabbit publishing, she chronicles her early days in the pop music world, collaborations with members of The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, her unbelievable horse and wagon journey throughout the UK that inspired her first album, and her unlikely return to the music world. Vashti speaks with me today from her home in Scotland. This the Season 9 premiere, and also the first episode since Low Profile has joned the Ruinous Media Network. It was produced by Markly Morrison, edited by Rose Nielsen, with artwork by Jack Habegger. Low Profile is supported by you on Patreon. The program receives in-kind support from Olympia, WA independent businesses San Francisco Street Bakery, Rainy Day Records, Old School Pizzeria, and Three Magnets Brewing Company.

Dan tempts fate when he calls winter out for being a chicken $h1t in December, then they make-up when he plays a full show of 'Winter' songs. Included: Be Your Own Pet, Of Monsters and Men, The Head & The Heart, Bright Eyes, Vashti Bunyan, a couple winter bike riding stories and much more.

This month we head back to one of the rare years before any of us (even Tracey) were born and investigate our favourite songs of 1970. You can expect Prog, Folk, Pop, Reggae, Soul, Jazz, Country, & Metal. We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year. Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - Amon Düül II, Badfinger, Syd Barrett, Black Sabbath, James Brown, Tim Buckley, Vashti Bunyan, Carpenters, Chairmen Of The Board, Dave & Ansell Collins, Miles Davis, Deep Purple, The Doors, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Jimi Hendrix, The Hollies, The Jackson 5, Carole King, King Crimson, Led Zeppelin, Lee Marvin, Curtis Mayfield, MC5, Pink Floyd, John Sebastian, Simon & Garfunkel, Edwin Starr, The Stooges, Townes Van Zandt, & Scott Walker.Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3rGqXFzmixbgrzW9Q4sugS?si=00848dd580034aedFind our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes, you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdg Ian's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqA and Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9Nw The playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point.

José González, Vashti Bunyan and Erlend Øye discuss what draws them to create quiet music, how they approach playing it live, and its universal and trans-genre appeal. José González was born in Gothenburg in Sweden to Argentinian parents, and grew up listening to Latin folk and pop music. In 2003 he released his debut solo album ‘Veneer'. It featured a downtempo cover of The Knife's ‘Heartbeats' which became an international success after being featured on a TV ad campaign. He's celebrating the album's 20th anniversary with a run of shows this year. Vashti Bunyan is an English singer songwriter who began her music career in the 1960s. She left London for the Outer Hebrides, travelling in a wagon drawn by a black horse called Bess, and wrote an album about the trip called Just Another Diamond Day. It was released in 1970, but had little commercial success. Vashti withdrew from music for 30 years, but by 2000, the album had acquired a cult following, and the second phase of her musical career began. Erlend Øye is a Norwegian best known for being one half of the indie-folk duo Kings of Convenience. He's also front-man for the band The Whitest Boy Alive, is the co-founder of the independent label Bubbles Records, and plays extensively with trio La Comitiva.

Avant-folk icon Vashti Bunyan joins us for a chat about her memoir, “Wayward, Just Another Life to Live” which was critically acclaimed and well received in the UK, the book has made its way across the pond and is available for purchase in the U.S. Listen to us discuss her musical upbringing, being embraced by the 1960's Folk music scene, why she went away and how she found her way back to music.

In the early 70s, Vashti Bunyan went away. Frustrated with an industry unwelcoming of her talents, she eventually moved back to Scotland and raised three children. She never sang, and rarely missed it. It was a perfectly content life. But 30 years later, music once again came calling. The singer experienced a resurgence in interest at the turn of the millennium – more interest than she'd ever had the first go round. Last year Bunyan released Wayward: Just Another Life to Live, a memoir recounting one of music's most unique and fascinating careers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Vashti Bunyan is an English singer-songwriter. Beginning her career in the mid-1960s, she released her debut album, Just Another Diamond Day in 1970. The album sold very few copies, and Bunyan was discouraged, and abandoned her musical career. By 2000, her album had acquired a cult following; it was re-released, and Bunyan recorded more songs, initiating the second phase of her musical career after a gap of thirty years. She subsequently released two more albums: Lookingaftering in 2005 and Heartleap in 2014.       Wayward, Just Another Life to Live In 1968, Vashti Bunyan gave up everything and everybody she knew in London to take to the road with a horse, wagon, dog, guitar, and her then-partner. They made the long journey up to the Outer Hebrides in an odyssey of discovery and heartbreak, full of the joy of freedom and the trudge of everyday reality, sleeping in the woods, fighting freezing winters and homelessness. Along the way, Vashti wrote the songs that would lead to recording her 1970's album Just Another Diamond Day, the lilting lyrics and guitar conveying innocent wonder at the world around her whilst disguising a deeper turmoil under the surface. From an unconventional childhood in post-war London to a fledgling career in mid-sixties pop, to the despair and failure to make any headway with her own songs, she rejected the music world altogether and left it all behind. After retreating to a musical wilderness for thirty years, the rediscovery of her recordings in 2000 gave Vashti a second chance to write, record and perform again.

Today on Transmissions: Vashti Bunyan. Though her 1970 Joy Boyd-produced Just Another Diamond Day album was barely heard upon original release, its rediscovery by key members of the burgeoning freak folk scene in the mid-2000s helped make it a cult classic, a tender work of imagination and melody. Recently, Bunyan published her first book, Wayward: Just Another Life. It charts her youth in the orbit of the Rolling Stones, her musical and mental struggles, and details the horse-drawn cart journey across the countryside where the songs of Just Another Diamond Day came into shape. It is a vivid and touching read, sly, understated and emotionally expansive. Its quiet melancholy and endearing jokes feel a piece with her musical work. She joined us to discuss the book, that journey, and what it felt like to have her work rediscovered—and why she hates being called a “folk” singer.  This episode of Transmissions is brought to you by Dad Grass. Go to Dadgrass.com/Transmissions to try it out.

The first time I ever heard Vashti Bunyan was as the theme song for the Amazon Prime TV series Patriot a few years ago. But the song was so beautiful, I let it play through every episode. I did some digging to find out more about the song and was surprised to learn it had originally been released in 1966! The more digging I did on Vashti and her music, the more fascinated I became! Why had I never heard this beautiful music? Why was there a 35 year gap between her first and second albums? Why was there a 9 year gap between her second and third albums? Then out of the blue, I got an email: Would you like to do a podcast with Vashti Bunyan? What? Are you kidding me? This is proof of God! Of course I want to talk with Vashti Bunyan! She's written a memoir that answers all the questions I had and more. What is her connection with The Rolling Stones? Who were the amazing session musicians on her earliest work? Why the gaps between albums? Where did she go? What did she do? It's a fascinating story that could only have happened in 60's and 70's UK (or maybe San Francisco). For example, there's the one about meeting Donovan and taking a horse and cart across the UK to live in his artists' community. Or the one about getting performance advice from Devendra Banhart after not performing at all for about 40 years. And what happened to all of her instruments? Her book is a fun, easy read with wonderful stories about beautiful music. I highly recommend picking it up wherever you get books. Vashti recommends independent book deals, if possible.

A special edition of the podcast this week, as we joined by three musicians who have released books. Howard Fishman's To Anyone Who Ever Asks: The Life, Music, and Mystery of Connie Converse is available now from Dutton. The book explores the life of converse, who remained largely unknown until her music was reissued in 2009 with the compilation, How Sad, How Lovely. Vashi Bunyan's music had its own renaissance around the turn of the millennium, when her album, Just Another Diamond Day was discovered by a new generation of musicians. Her memoir, Wayward: Just Another Life to Live is available now on White Rabbit. Ryan Walsh is the founder and front man of Boston-based indie band, Hallelujah the Hills. In 2018, Penguin released his Astral Weeks: A Secret History of 1968, which explores the creation of Van Morrison's seminal album. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Transmissions, Jesse Sheppard and Drew Gardner, the psychedelic folk duo Elkhorn. Their new album, On the Universe In All Directions, finds Jesse once again at his familiar 12-string acoustic guitar, but instead of Drew joining with his trademark Telecaster, he's moved over to vibraphone and drums for this outing. Have no fear: the familiar Elkhorn magic is here in spades, but in brand new ways. The songs were born out of collaboration with New York consciousness group Psychedelic Sangha, and as JJ Toth puts it in his excellent liner notes, the sounds traverse “the valleys between fried cosmic psychedelia and American Primitive… splitting the difference between Popol Vuh's devotional drift and the outer reaches of deep-cut classic rock while constantly keeping one foot in the river of the Ever-Weird America; call it Six Degrees of Uncle Dave Macon.”  From Buddhism to Fahey, from time slips to Aquarium Drunkard itself, this conversation unfolds and wanders, we hope you enjoy it. Support Aquarium Drunkard on Patreon. Transmissions is a part of the Talkhouse Podcast Network. Next week on Transmissions? The incredible Vashti Bunyan, who joins us to discuss her vivid and deep book Wayward.

On this episode, Marc chats with Vashti Bunyan, writer, singer, songwriter, poet, artist, and author of the memoir "Wayward: Just Another Life to Live," released in 2022 on White Rabbit books.  It covers her entire life, with special focus on her 1968 journey across the UK, when she wrote songs that appeared on her 1970 debut album Just Another Diamond Day. Since its reissue in 2000, Bunyan made two more incredible records, and she writes about all of this in a voice very similar to that heard in her enchanting songs. We hope you enjoy Marc's conversation with Vashti Bunyan!

Shannon Lay is a singer, guitarist, songwriter and Sub Pop recording artist from southern California. Her newest release Covers, Volume 1, is a 9-song collection of cover songs that celebrate Shannon's influences as an artist and serve as a vehicle to share her artistic perspective with her listeners. In this episode, Joe and Shannon discuss her musical roots and what stemmed the idea to release a record of other people's songs. She also shares the process behind selecting the songs, how she recorded them and why she thinks releasing a collection of covers is important. The two delve into their mutual appreciation for John Dwyer, Elliott Smith and Vashti Bunyan and we hear a couple tunes. https://www.shannonlay.com/ https://shannonlay.bandcamp.com/ https://www.subpop.com/releases/shannon_lay/covers_vol_1 https://www.discountmirrorsstudio.com/about/ https://www.altamirasoundrecording.com/

Vashti Bunyan didn't know her 1970 debut album Just Another Diamond Day had reached cult status until the '90s, when she first typed her name into a search engine. In those 20+ years, many listeners had not only discovered the album, but found it quite profound. In 2000, it was re-issued on CD. The album is a signpost on the road to "alternative folk" - think Joanna Newsom, Animal Collective, and Devendra Banhart, all of whom have cited her as an influence and collaborated with her. Bunyan grabbed her guitar and started making music again. She released her album Lookaftering in 2005, followed by Heartleap in 2014. He autobiography Wayward, Just Another Life to Live, was issued in 2023. In this episode, Bunyan talks about her remarkable resurgence and discusses some key songs from her catalog.

Vashti Bunyan in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.whiterabbitbooks.co.uk/titles/vashti-bunyan/wayward/9781474621939/ In 1968, Vashti Bunyan gave up everything and everybody she knew in London to take to the road with a horse, wagon, dog, guitar and her then partner.

After retreating to a musical wilderness for thirty years, the rediscovery of her recordings in 2000 brought Vashti a second chance to write, record and perform once more. One of the great hippie myths of the 1960s, Wayward, Just Another Life to Live, rewrites the narrative of a barefoot girl on the road to describe a life lived at full tilt from the first, revealing what it means to change course and her emotional struggle, learning to take back control of her own life.

Joel worked for various labels - Mushroom, Atlantic and Sony among them - and was the man who signed the Darkness. Training to become a psychotherapist, he began trading in rare records, travelling all over the country to buy collections and, during Lockdown, starting a special “mystery vinyl” service where he'd send people albums he thought they'd like based on their musical taste.   He talks here in fascinating detail about what an emotionally charged world this is, seeing people's entire life stories mapped out in records, becoming a “temporary custodian” of their past, learning about whole new areas of music and obscure genres that suddenly come into vogue and every aspect of what makes a record valuable. And the thrill of finding the odd “holy grail” (Vashti Bunyan's Just Another Diamond Day, rare Bowie first pressings etc), a process that involves “kissing an awful lot of frogs”. He even pulled out an album by a band neither of us knew, the 1970 psych-folk act Justine.

We also have Aled Haydn Jones - the current head of radio 1 - who has spoken out about his rollercoaster journey to be a Dad, via a surrogate. Vashti Bunyan was an aspiring pop musician in the late 60s when she walked away from potential fame, and took a horse and cart to Scotland. Years later she searched online to realise she had a cult following. She joins us. Daniel Biddle was the most seriously injured survivor of the 7/7 terror attacks in London in 2015. He tells us of his journey since, physically back to the site of the attack, but also in developing opportunities for disabled people in the workplace. For her Inheritance Tracks, crime writer Karin Slaughter chooses You May be Right by Billy Joel and We Got the Beat by the Go-Gos, and we have your Thank you. Producer: Corinna Jones

Vashti speaks to Magnus about her new memoir, Wayward: Just Another Life to Live. From London in the Swinging Sixties to a hippie retreat in the Outer Hebrides: she and her partner travelled – slowly – by horse and wagon. She gave up music, disillusioned with the pop industry, until her 1970 album was rediscovered thirty years later.  This podcast is particularly exciting for us because, as we discovered while recording it, Vashti once worked in (what is now) John Sandoe's. The art room on the ground floor used to be a veterinary clinic; she worked there after leaving her record label in the 60s and leaving London altogether.  We have a number of signed copies so please telephone, email or order online if you would like one.  Edited by Magnus Rena  Music, in order:  Vashti Bunyan, I'd Like To Walk Around In Your Mind  Some Things Just Stick In your Mind  Train Song  Rainbow River  Rose Hip November  Just Another Diamond Day  Here Before  I'd Like To Walk Around In Your Mind 

Publisher Marigold Atkey and journalist Emily Rhodes join us for a discussion of Lessico famigliare, Natalia Ginzburg's novelistic memoir or autobiographical novel, first published in Italy in 1963 and most recently translated by Jenny McPhee as Family Lexicon (Daunt/NYRB). Ginzburg had a long and distinguished career in Italian literature, theatre and politics. This episode explores her fascinating life and asks why her work is finding new readers and admirers in the 21st century, amongst them Rachel Cusk and Sally Rooney. Also in this episode John enjoys How To Gut a Fish (Bloomsbury), a debut collection of short stories by Shelia Armstrong; while Andy reflects on Vashti Bunyan's pilgrimage to the Outer Hebrides, as recounted in Wayward (White Rabbit), her memoir of the 1960s and beyond.

In this episode we welcome the wonderful Vashti Bunyan — all the way from her home in Edinburgh — and ask her about her magical music and the remarkable memoir she's just published. The "freak folk" legend — though she strongly disavows the "folk" tag — begins by talking of her early musical memories, among them meeting an unhappy Cliff Richard backstage in Blackpool in 1961. She describes her dream of becoming a pop singer in mid-'60s London, and how that led her to the Mayfair office of Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham. Briefly and unhappily typecast as "a dark-haired Marianne Faithfull", she recalls the session for the Jagger-Richards song 'Some Things Just Stick In Your Mind', backed up in the studio by Jimmy Page & Nicky Hopkins. Vashti explains how she felt equally adrift in the world of folk, eventually dropping out of the London music scene to travel to the Outer Hebrides in a horse-drawn wagon. This is the journey she writes about so vividly in Wayward, leading circuitously to Joe Boyd producing her 1970 album Just Another Diamond Day. After a discussion of that exquisite record, she talks about why she neither wrote nor sang another song for 30 years… then admits how much it meant when younger admirers like Joanna Newsom and Devendra Banhart discovered the album in 2000, subsequently appearing on her Lookaftering (2005) and Heartleap (2014). With Nick Drake's final album Pink Moon turning 50 this year, we take Vashti back to the awkward afternoon she spent trying to write a song with him after Joe Boyd had introduced them. Along the way we hear clips of Joe speaking to Gerrie Lim about Nick's guitar playing and "romantic doom" in 1994. After paying our respects to Saints frontman Chris Bailey, we touch on highlights among the 120+ articles just added to the RBP library, including pieces about Charles Mingus (1962), Dusty in Memphis (1969), the Smiths (1987) and Fatboy Slim (1997). Jasper's selection of a recent Michael McDonald interview gives us the perfect excuse to explain to Vashti what "Yacht Rock" is… after which we hear a final clip from the Boyd interview. Many thanks to special guest Vashti Bunyan; Wayward is published by White Rabbit and available now. You can visit Vashti's website at anotherday.co.uk. Pieces discussed: Vashti Bunyan, Heartleap, Robert Kirby, Lost Ladies of Folk, Joe Boyd on Nick Drake, The Saints, Chris Bailey, Muddy Waters, Jimi and Janis, The Smiths, Fatboy Slim, Charlie Mingus, Dusty Springfield, Robyn, Ry Cooder, Duke Ellington, ESP Disk, Michael McDonald and Phil Collins.
