Rod Clements - My Lindisfarne Days


Listen Later

Rod Clements has been there from the early days of his folk roots...

Lindisfarne is one of the biggest bands to come out of the North East and the recent BBC4 Documentary presented by Sam Fender pushes the legendary band back once more into the spotlight. 

Rod talks about the early days, guesting on a chart-topping record and eating sickly sausage rolls with Gazza! Hear why Lindisfarne are flying the Geordie musical flag for cleverly crafted songs woven about harsh life in the North East. Alan Hull's untimely death at 50, cheated us of his talent. Thankfully his rich back catalogue of timeless songs is still brought to life with the present band with Rod at the helm. 

Fog on the Tyne is still theirs!
