Ian Prowse and Mick Ord discuss the career of Lindisfarne musician Alan Hull with documentary producer Ged Clarke. The songwriter penned hits such as ‘Lady Eleanor’ and ‘Fog On The Tyne’ but relatively little is known about his work away from the North East.
Ged joined the boys after the airing of his hugely popular BBC documentary featuring Sam Fender, Sting and Elvis Costello to name a few.
The documentary is available on iPlayer for 12 months
