My latest podcast guest is the first lady of London Soul, P.P.
Arnold and what an honour it was to chat with Pat on the podcast.
There have been so many 'pinch-me' moments on this audio journey
- and this is right up there for me.

P.P. Arnold's story is that of a rich and varied life.

From her early musical origins in powerhouse church gospel, the
talented singer's career began when she joined the Ike & Tina
Turner Revue at the age of just seventeen. But little did the
young Ikette know how much her world was about to be turned
upside-down... Upon arriving in London in 1966 to support
the Rolling Stones, the shy but vivacious nineteen-year-old
caught the eye of frontman Mick Jagger. He would persuade her to
stay in the city and record as a solo artist, ultimately leading
to a five-decade career working with everyone from Jagger, Rod
Stewart, the Small Faces, Eric Clapton and Nick Drake to Barry
Gibb, Peter Gabriel, Roger Waters, the KLF, Primal Scream, Ocean
Colour Scene and Paul Weller...We'll hear all about her
incredible career, her autobiography Soul Survivor, that has just
been published, and how she came to create music with Paul Weller
for his album A Kind Revolution (on the majestic Woo Se Mama),
along with tracks for her most recent album, The New Adventures
of... her first LP of new material in 51 years... which was
produced, engineered and arranged by Steve Cradock.
