In which the beloved entertainer talks about his memoir \'Beeswing: Fairport, Folk and Finding My Voice 1967-1975\', a rich and circuitous ramble that features Jimmy Shand, Louis Armstrong, a school band with Hugh Cornwell, sitar lessons with Andy Summers, the word game that invented \'Unhalfbricking\', the genius of Sandy Denny, the \'backstabbing\' folk community, the perils of the British stiff upper lip, a cardboard cut-out of Nick Drake, the Henry the Human Fly photoshoot, disinfecting sheep, the writing of Meet on the Ledge and the enduring mystery of the best song lyrics.
