RTÉ Radio 1’s ‘The Rolling Wave’ last night – a terrific extended interview with Dick Gaughan (in Edinburgh) by Aoife Nic Cormaic (in Dublin), interspersed with music from ‘Live at the BBC: 1972-79’, out now on CD and out soon (this side of Christmas) on vinyl.

Thanks for that, Colin. Good to hear Dick’s interesting comments about the people and the music. It also included my favourite, Now Westlin Winds by Burns. Now looking forwards to the ‘True & Bold’ evening at Celtic Connections on 18th January.
Review of‘ Live at the BBC: 1972-79 incoming soon, @Colin-h
Will post here as well, given collective interest.
Cheers for the heads-up and the link Colin. What a cracking interview – I love the way that Aoife just lets Dick chat on and regale us with fabulous reminiscences.
I have grabbed this to burn onto a CD-R for the car. If anyone sees a little Subaru zoom past with the driver mangling Now Westlin’ Winds at the top of his voice, it’ll be me.
I’ll inform the authorities immediately…
