Neil Brand – Goon Pod

This week the great Neil Brand visits the show to share his love of the Goons and in particular the music. Neil of course is a well-respected writer, composer and broadcaster and the country's leading silent film accompanist. A self-taught musician, Neil describes the instinctive feel of the music in the Goon Show from people like Max Geldray and Ray Ellington and admires the sheer musical chutzpah of the boys in the band. He's also a huge fan of Angela Morley and the cinematic sweep of some of her arrangements. As well as talking about the show we get glimpses into Neil's career and passions, a description of the one time he met Milligan and a story about a chance encounter with someone very much within Sellers' and Milligan's orbit.Neil's podcast All About The Music: https://www.allaboutthemusicpod.com/
