Description

How many threads connectus to time and place through music? On this week’s episode of The Artful Periscope, Larry sits down with Robyn Hitchcock, author of 1967: How I Got There and Why I Never Left. The biography details Robyn’s childhood growing up in an English private school during 1967, which is a frequent contender for the title of Greatest Year in Music. Larry and Robin discuss The Beatles, Jimmy Hendrix and other early influences that shaped Robyn’s lifetime love of music. His love of rock and roll often conflicted with the strict conservative norms of boarding school and it’s hierarchal structure, which forced boys to endure bullying and mental health struggles. Yet, even in such a difficult environment, music still found it’s way into his life through records he and the other students played in the evenings. They also discuss Bob Dylan (as well as Robyn’s current friendship with Bob Dylan’s son), Robyn and his wife’s current passion for both song production and art, and his daily life living in Nashville.
