I'll be interested to see if you get hit for extra import duties etc. I hope to buy something nice from them to celebrate becoming an OAP at the end of next winter!
I saw him play a couple of times. Yes - very good.
A friend of mine spotted him in a pub in Coventry. He was reading a paper, smoking a cigarette, and knocking back a few pre-gig drinks. My pal was a fan and walked over to JM's table...
Pal: "Hi John. I'm a huge fan of yours. I absolutely LOVE Solid Air..."
JM: "F**k O*F!!!"
He was not the friendliest of musicians!
(TBH, I wouldn't like random people coming up to me in a pub either, but I think that is the price you pay for fame and fortune?)
He worked with the person I regard as the greatest living musician, Lee Scratch Perry and together they worked on 'Big Muff'. A truly GREAT song.

A friend was in his band for a while, apparently he used to have some lines of nose candy on his amp for refreshment during a gig. One night some wag replaced them with polyfiller. Reportedly, he got a 200k advance to make an album, and it all went up his nose. Talented guy, but he did sort of copy Nick Drake's style.

Aye he was a 'friend' of Nick, used to take the 'mickey' out of him and was shocked when he died, hence 'Solid air'

Aye Jackie could be just the same, I knew him well and he used a photograph I'd given him on an album.they both shared something in common though, neither of em used their real names.I'll be interested to see if you get hit for extra import duties etc. I hope to buy something nice from them to celebrate becoming an OAP at the end of next winter!
