It’s very sad that he died at such a young age but most of the stuff I’ve heard is the biggest pile of wánk ever.

Didn’t recognise the name but had a listen to some of his songs today.
Good songwriter and was a big inspiration to a lot of people it seems.
Not the sort of performer who would have been a mainstream success.
Real shame .

He is not everyones cup of tea but nevertheless, he had a great way of writing words. Used to record whole albums using a cassette player and record them all live.

Thank you, goodnight and bollocks

It’s his influence though Dar. A unique talent ahead of his time, if not entirely musically.

Heartfelt? He tweeted four lines of a Johnston song. 🤣

Macnabb quoted the most succinct paean to a great song writer.

Just watched his NPR Tiny Desk set. Not your usual looking performer. Sang from lyric sheets sounding very similar to Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips.
Some great stuff on the Tiny Desk series.
