The Afterword Podcast


This is GLK London calling the world...an audio companion to theafterword.co.uk

The sound of the waifs and strays of the Word magazine blog (RIP), musing along the byways of popular culture. We blather, you listen — that’s the deal.

Twang gathers in the pod with Feedback File and Nick Duvet to discuss Joni Mitchell.  We wander through her early folkie days, her (arguable) peak in the 70s, the great jazz scare and Feedback makes a case for the later albums where her unerring way with a tune and a chord progression fights with the unpleasant production values of the time and wins.  We agree that her influence is enormous and toy with the idea that she is increasingly becoming a cult figure.
