Joe Boyd is a man about music, record producer, a film producer and author.
He arrived in London in 1964 with Muddy Waters and a host of blues musicians who played to sold out UK audiences when they were unappreciated in their US homeland.
In England Joe Boyd is remembered as a producer associated with Fairport Convention, particularly the ground breaking album Liege and Lief. Classic songs from the record are still in Fairport's repertoire and will be played at the Cropredy festival.
In this conversation he talks about Nick Drake, Paul Simon, The Incredible String Band, Paul Butterfield, MIke Bloomfield and the enduring power of real music.
