80. Jake Burns: Stiff Little Fingers' Singer & Guitarist

Episode 80 is a conversation between Fender Jackson and his childhood hero Jake Burns of Stiff Little Fingers.


Conversation includes: introductions; life in Belfast in the 1970s; moving to London in 1978; being stopped by the police in London; Jake’s early musical influences; the huge influence Rory Gallagher had on Jake; Motown; Led Zeppelin; Black Sabbath; Deep Purple; The Damned; Sex Pistols; John Peel; Bob Marley; Bob Dylan; Graeme Parker; Little Richard; The Clash; Henry Cluney; Gerry McAvoy; Deep Joy; the influence of ‘Career Opportunities’; being signed to Chrysalis Records at the same time as Rory Gallagher; Rory playing on ‘Human Shield’; ‘The Eliminator’ and ‘Flying Saucer Rock 'n' Roll’ by Enda Hughes and Michael Colgan; the Bafta-winning documentary editor Jake Martin; unwanted attention; Beach Boys; Elvis Costello; Blondie; Television; ’Now Then…’; New Wave; New Romantics; working at BBC; reuniting the band in 1987 as well as other topics.


Silver Lining mash up with This Old Heart of Mine by Fender Jackson. Special thanks to Eugene Hamill who provided the horns. Eugene was recorded by Plunkett McComb in Starlite Studios Dungannon, County Tyrone. Also special thanks to Lina Goldbach who provided the violin part. Lina was working in luthier Paul Doyle’s workshop here in Galway when I went to collect one of my acoustics which required attention and she was treating a violin. Fair play to her for coming with me and recording the violin parts.
