Martin Carthy MBE is a true icon of British folk music.

In this episode, we explore Martin’s remarkable legacy - a career spanning over six decades - from the 1960s folk revival to ground-breaking collaborations with Steeleye Span, The Watersons, and The Imagined Village (on which Paul, Martin and Eliza Carthy collaborated on 'John Barleycorn'.

We discuss his work with Paul Weller, including the 2018 album True Meanings, where Martin’s guitar graces the track 'Come Along.'

Martin also reflects on the original 1972 recording of Lal Waterson’s haunting 'Never the Same,' recently reimagined by Paul for his upcoming covers album Find the El Dorado.

We also chat about Martin’s new 2025 release Transform Me Then Into a Fish – a full-circle revisit of his 1965 debut album, reimagined for his 84th birthday. It’s a powerful reminder of his enduring artistry and commitment to traditional song.
