Sticky Jazz Interview Ian McNabb of The Icicle Works Part 1

In what I would call the better part of my life, I have had the companionship of the music of Ian McNabb, I got into his band "The Icicle Works" at age 13, diving into "New Wave" coming from the UK. Ian McNabb has had incredible longevity with his solo career, producing some of the best work over the last 30+ years since he went solo. 

Ian McNabb is from Liverpool England, and we talked at length about the local music scene that produced The Beatles, Echo & The Bunnymen, Julian Cope, and Frankie Goes To Hollywood. We covered in this episode some of our mutual friends, and his own music and what brought him to this point. He has recorded a lot with Neil Young, and was also playing with Mike Scott from "The Waterboys" (He was there when I first met him in 1998). 

This is an interview covering a great deal of music history, and the life of a veteran singer, dig in, Ian has a lot of great stories.
