Also the producer of Lindisfarnes flawed 3rd, Dingley Dell, with the above atypical song, inspired, I recall from an article in Melody maker, by Sticky Fingers era Stones.
Thanks Jim, I really didn’t believe that, thinking it a faux-wiki, but you’re right. And, apropos DD, the band re-mixed his production, not liking it, either. I blame that Chris Welch.
I am reading Johnny Cash The Life by Robert Hilburn right now. Cash was struggling when he had to do the producing himself, or when the Nashville professionals took care of it. He did his best work with top rock ‘n’ roll producers: Sam Phillips, Rick Rubin and indeed Bob Johnston who played a big role in Cash’ career in the time of Folsom/San Quentin.
Mike Scott’s book has a lovely chapter on Mr Johnson great stuff and RIP
Was just going to make the same comment re the Mike Scott chapter
Yeah, that showed Bob 20+ years on from his work with Zimmie and showed that we are all human.

He also produced the definitive Lindisfarne album, Fog On The Tyne.

See the bloke in the stripy T-shirt on the Bob cover? I know him well.
That’s much more interesting than my views on Scottish politics.
More, more!!
