Liverpool Sound And Vision: The Saturday Supplement, An Interview With James Hodkinson Of Shadowlight.

James Hodkinson grew up on Merseyside from the late 1970s through to the early 90s. The sound track of his early life was the music of the heavy, progressive and so-called space rock genres, which drifted in through his bedroom window from older kids’ houses and mingled with the more indigenous sounds of his family home. This collision saw King Crimson, Hawkwind, Caravan, Pink Floyd and Marillion blend with Joni Mitchell, The Beatles, Elton John and the Carpenters and Crosby, Stills and Nash, as well as the classical symphonies played on old vinyl records by his grandfather.
