I see him every January when he comes over to join in the Transatlantic sessions night in our Celtic Connections festival. Always a great show which this year featured Martha Wainwright :)  We missed '21 and '22 due to covid but prior to that, Jerry had piled on the weight. This year he was looking a lot sleeker.

I think that was the most comprehensive Q & A I'd read with him. There was a little bit of name-dropping fluff, but a lot of cool behind-the-scenes stuff too, straight from a guy who was there. I guess you can do that when you were actually on the bill. I especially enjoyed the bit about tracking "The Three Bells" with Mike Auldridge before he passed.
