The following is on Shelagh McDonald's FB page from one Mike Barnes:
My article on Shelagh will be published in the issue of MOJO out at the end of September. It was held over for a month, but it will be accompanied by separate pieces (not by myself) on Judy Dyble and Linda Perhacs. All sounds good to me. I hope you all enjoy it; if not, please be polite!
Haven't bought Mojo in years but might have to make an exception.
October issue, out now has a rare interview with Roy Harper. By which I mean full interviews with him seem to be rare, these days. Fortunately my local library still carries Mojo. |

The issue of Mojo I am in is out on the 24th September. I'm looking forward to reading it :-) (and seeing what I said  ) Also today I was interviewed by Pete Paphides for a radio 4 documentary. Another charming man. That was a bit of a giggle.. Not sure when that is on air but doubtless I will hear.. Soon I think.. |

Really?!!!! Where on earth is this profligate part of the world?  Lancashire Libraries (where I work) haven't shut any branches (yet) but the magazines and half the papers went a couple of years ago... |

Newcastle library only recently stopped keeping Record Collector magazine, due to council cuts which p**d me off a bit, as I've long since stopped paying money out for such bad journalism/writing. Mojo is good, but even with the covermount CD I find it too dear. We can also read, for free, Q magazine, which is just rock stars in their underwear, but the CD reviews aren't too bad. |

I'm going to be a nattering on BBC Radio 4 on the 21st October. 4-4.30pm http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/proginfo/2013/43/r4-auditioning-for-auntie-monday.htmlAuditioning For Auntie Journalist and broadcaster Pete Paphides delves into the BBC auditions process for aspiring bands of the 1950s and 1960s such as The Rolling Stones, Elton John and Pink Floyd. Throughout this era, any artist hoping to achieve wider national recognition would have to try and secure national radio exposure. To do this, they would have to meet the exacting standards of a small but powerful board of assessors within the BBC. Producers and sound engineers of the time remember the sessions, and musicians such as Peter Hammill of Van der Graaf Generator, Judy Dyble of Fairport Convention and Alvin Stardust recall their audition processes. The audition panels' notes are carefully kept to this day in the BBC Archive. Nick Drake's notes, for example read as follows: "Suitable to broadcast, but would probably only be in specialist late night programmes. Type of artist who would appear on 'John Peel' record label – underground, folky. YES." Among the artists the BBC weren't initially convinced about were The Rolling Stones, while the errant behaviour of other groups' recording BBC sessions (for example Pink Floyd) threatened their relationship with the Corporation. Presenter/ Pete Paphides, Producer/ Laura Parfitt for a White Pebble Media production BBC Radio 4 Publicity Ep 1/1 Monday 21 October 4.00-4.30pm BBC RADIO 4 |

That sounds fascinating!
(Checks calendar... I'll be out of the country when it's transmitted! I may have to call on help to listen to it... hope it gets podcasted and/or this fangled digibox thing we'ver got is working again by then.)
cheers

Typical BBC; they archived the notes and wiped the tapes. |

It's alright Jude - they referred to you as a reject - if the Mail don't like you, you're obviously OK  Am in good company with the other rejects.  I like the comment 'Who is Judy Dyble then?' That's me told eh? |

They could have released a series called Accepted and rejected by the BBC, but if it would have sold..... The one song by The Rolling Stones which they saved sounded rather tame. |

Well yes that's probably what happened to the studio auditions. Mine was in a big church hall with lots of other 'acts' Not sure they were recorded. But then I wasn't really looking  |
