Creageivity 02 - with Claire Waller and Arthur Brown
Manage episode 359644232 series 3463285
Arthur Brown's debut album The Crazy World of Arthur Brown was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic... in 1968. Since then The God of Hellfire has never stopped making music and collaborating with a wide range of amazing musicians. (In this podcast he recalls gigs with Frank Zappa, and hanging out with Jimi Hendrix in his LA apartment).
A true legend, Arthur met Claire Waller when she was running her much-loved Buttercup Café in Lewes, East Sussex, and the two slowly formed a partnership to bring Arthur's music and performance to new audiences, through multi-media shows, which may even (as we hear in the podcast) be staged in their own venue.
It's a truly inspiring story which takes in the release of the single Long Long Road - released on Arthur's 80th birthday - and exciting work with young animators and designers. Along the way we hear about the pair's love of nature, and the idyllic life they are building together in the Yorkshire Dales.
