Wanted: soundclips of BJ Wilson interviews
Can any Procol Harum collectors help (click here if you can)? Interview clips of the great percussionist are needed for a tribute being organised for Radio Enfield in the UK by a group of broadcasters who met in the 60s at the North London school that BJ Wilson attended. In 2010 Radio Enfield celebrates forty years on the air and Latymer School celebrates a century on its current site; the two institutions are linking up for a special four-day broadcast to mark the occasion. It would be brilliant if BJ could be represented, so please give it some thought and e-mail us with your thoughts. (thanks, David)
