Alan Bershaw at home with his musical files.

Alan Bershaw lives a very interesting life. He's a musical archivist, a finder of lost recordings and video clips, and the man who cleans them up for possible commercial release, and for viewing on social media. I've been trying to interview Alan for years, and this morning it finally happened. We met in his office/workshop, surrounded by years of recordings in various formats. We spoke for an hour, and the resulting interview will be aired in March, with a couple of rare recordings.
