Is This Thing On? Number 10
This has been one of my favourites. I interview independent artist, musician, dancer, actor and great friend Charles Olsen. He talks about visits to, the now notorious, Branstons Farm in Surrey in the early nineties. Meeting Dave, Paul and myself in the early stages of Drunk on Logic, almost winning the Saatchi prize and living in Madrid. As he lives in Madrid , the only way I could do the interview was to record our Skype conversation and it turned out pretty good.
I found myself without a clip of Charlie playing Flamenco so had to Skype him to send one, only to find that he didn’t have one either. Fortunately he was able to record an impromptu piece on the spot and email it over. What a pro!
His web presence is amazing and has many a site to see as he does so much. Including a blog written in Spanish!
If you use iTunes to download this podcast then you will also be able to see the pics I added, screen grabs showing our Skype/recording session.
I also included one of my tunes as well as a 12 year old recording of Drunk On Logic’s first paid gig.
