Michael Moorcock’s Multiverse IV: Skiffle, Shatner, Tornadoes & Hawkwind

Season Two of Hard Agree begins with Andrew Sumner welcoming back the world’s greatest living fantasy author, Michael Moorcock, for the fourth instalment in their ongoing series of conversations about Michael’s life and work. In this wide-ranging Season Two opener (aka Michael Moorcock’s Multiverse IV) , Mike starts out recounting his skiffle adventures with the tea chest bass before covering off: Pete Seeger & Woody Guthrie; subscriptions to Encounter magazine; the intricacies of CIA funding; Bob Calvert, Dave Brock & Mike’s association with Hawkwind; the abiding evil of Kensington Tories, William Shatner’s interpretation of Sonic Attack; P.J. Proby reading T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land; tornado season in tornado alley; anti-Moorcock sentiment at the BBC; the secret origin of The Deep Fix, 2021’s England vs Italy result, British soccer tribalism and mayhem in London’s Frith Street. This is Moorcock’s Multiverse, we’re just living in it.
