    Paddy is one of the best songwriters this country has produced in the last 30 odd years.

    I could listen to Paddy talking all day. Every day. Punctuated only by Prefab Sprout songs.

    I so love this guy and his music...I wish I knew him! Luckily, someone who wrote a book on PS (and an upcoming one, as well), had me do some paintings for it, so I will be linked at some point!

    Refreshing to hear - the impression he had become somewhat withdrawn and eccentric fully dispelled: a warm, witty, articulate and self-aware chap. "The productivity rate is not all it could be!". Heh heh.

    Does anybody know why Crimson/Red is not available on Spotify? For me it is one of the best albums ever!

    Paddy, or anyone, who hears him talking about Pollock, check out the work of Paul Jenkins, beautiful work.

    I have been considering having an extra ear grafted on to myself specifically to listen to Paddy and Prefab Sprout. Physical geography is proving contentious however with my other half... but she has dubious musical taste.
