There can't be too many songwriters who've released albums which have been so universally praised by the critics and yet have had to wait 40 years for the equivalent commercial success but then Mick Head has never been one to follow a predictable career path.

His previous bands The Pale Fountains and Shack certainly had a strong "cult" following (admittedly including the likes of Noel Gallagher) but it was only with last year's "Dear Scott" that Michael Head & the Red Elastic Band converted critical to commercial success with such aplomb.

At times it's been a rocky road for Mick Head but the future certainly looks bright with the release of his new album 'Loophole' in May and a long awaited autobiography 'Ciao,Ciao Bambino' out in 2025.

Ian Prowse and Mick Ord met up with Mick Head in the Liverpool Podcafe for a long-awaited and much anticipated 'Misadventures in Music'
