Bringing It All Back Home with CP Lee

Ian Clayton in conversation with CP Lee, the first in a series of Bringing It All Back Home live events. CP Lee recalls the folk and beat club scene in Manchester in the mid-sixties and how witnessing Bob Dylan at the Free Trade Hall in Manchester in 1966 changed his life. He talks about his time in Greasy Bear, and his ten years with the highly influential satirical rock band, Alberto Y Lost Trios Paranoias, including their recording-breaking play Snuff Rock and its unfortunate run in New York. He talks of his love of important artists in his life, including Arthur Lee's Love, Frank Randall and Lord Buckley, shares anecdotes about Andy Warhol, Nico and Howard Marks, tells the story of visiting Bob Dylan's childhood home in Hibbing, and pulls out his piccolo ukulele to perform a handful of songs along the way. The recording also includes a reading from Bringing It All Back Home by Ian, a story of the musical hall sounds that filled the street in which he grew up in.

Paul Hanley in conversation with John Robb at Louder Than Words Festival, Manchester. They discuss Paul's book Leave The Capital, a refashioning of the story of Manchester music through the prism of two recording studios, Strawberry and Pluto, which Hanley argues were pivotal in the creation of what the world now sees as the Manchester sound by freeing the city's musicians from the control of the Londoncentric music business. In turn, credit is paid to the founders of the studios, veterans of the sixties bands The Mindbenders and Herman's Hermits, songwriter Graham Gouldman and 10cc.
