Ep4 that was shown on beeb4 last night was so far my fave, KT Tunstall doing BlackHorse creating the layers for the song is truly fantastic to watch and admire.

If you can find them, some of the earlier ones are well worth watching as well, 2008 Chrissie Hynde was great as well. There’s not enough of the more intimate shows. There was a few in Reading a couple of years ago, open mic type stuff that ‘names’ turned up to, I’d love to see Songwriters’ Circle one day, and I don’t think it would matter who was playing either.

iPlayer wins again :smiley:

Excellent combos. I’ve also enjoyed the songwriters at the BBC show, on before that, with people like Neil Young, Gordon Lightfoot, et al. Been a great experience for me, as a lot of them are from my youth.
