Fireside Chat - Pt 2

Terry Callier

Mr. Bongo, Cadet, Chicago

Folk-jazz legend Terry Callier was for far too long the exclusive province of a fierce but small cult following and it was not until the early nineties that the masses caught on and he got some of the recognition that he so rightly deserved. Having retired in 1983 to retrain as a computer programmer and make a home for his daughter who decided she wanted to join him in Chicago, it was a call from Eddie Pillar at Acid Jazz that led to some legendary and emotional performances at London's Jazz Cafe and a new recording career with Talkin' Loud/Verve. Since then he has released another five albums, four of them on Brighton based Mr Bongo Records with the most recent seeing him collaborate with Massive Attack's Robert del Naja. Now back on tour to perform more sell-out shows, Callier still found time to talk to us about his early career in the second of two Fireside Chat sessions.
