This episode is not what you'd expect from a '90s Canadian rock podcast, as this artist is neither '90s, nor Canadian, however he is my favourite non-nineties non-Canadian artist, if you catch my drift... Anyhow, he's well known in Europe and the U.K. but not as much in North America, so I thought I'd take the opportunity this podcast have given me to introduce his music to Canada and beyond. The audio quality is not as great as I'd hoped but if you stick with the episode, I'm positive that you won't regret it...
In part one, we discuss busking 7 minute original songs, hanging with David Bowie at the Arts Lab, how at 22 he ended up with a full orchestra and choir on his first record, the end of the first era of Cockney Rebel and among other things, he takes a deep dive into the writing of Make Me Smile.
So, even if you're not familiar with Steve Harley, please give it a listen as I think you will be richly rewarded.
