Description: She’s written and recorded some of the greatest music of all time.  And her new memoir, “Wayward: Just Another Life To Live,” is an absolute must-read.     Considered the godmother of the freak-folk movement, as if to underscore the point, Devendra Banhart used to write her name on his arm before he’d play shows.    In this episode, Vashti Bunyan reveals to Discograffiti:    Exactly what happened on her lightning-quick ride on the fame train during the early part of her career;   What she did to sabotage her Jimmy Page-written single;   And a blow-by-blow account of her 18-month period of homeless wandering.   NEXT WEEK: Vashti Bunyan rates the bulk of her discography…including Diamond Day!   SUBSCRIBE NOW!: https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti   Official playlist curated by Dave on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/17OLRbUm2H5Sp6mwUHD25Q?si=OCZQtlRVRfevoW8P8OkW8g     Priceless Vashti & Robert Lewis footage from their travels: https://youtu.be/vhUcMIgJZXo “Winter Is Blue” segment from “Tonite Let’s All Make Love In London”: https://youtu.be/JZ-RLaHSCA0     CONNECT Join our Soldiers of Sound Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1839109176272153 Patreon: www.Patreon.com/Discograffiti Podfollow: https://podfollow.com/1592182331 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discograffitipod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Discograffiti/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Discograffiti YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyaQCdvDelj5EiKj6IRLhw Web site: http://discograffiti.com/   CONTACT DAVE Email: dave@discograffiti.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hooligandave Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/davidgebroe/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/DaveGebroe   CONTACT TODD ZIMMER: GRAPHIC DESIGN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ToddZimmer and https://www.facebook.com/punknjunkradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_todd_zimmer/ and https://www.instagram.com/punknjunkradioshow/   #vashtibunyan #vinylcollection #jaggerrichards #andrewloogoldham #justanotherdiamondday #vinyl #devendrabanhart #joeboyd #music #fatcat #donovan #psychfolk #joannanewsom #indiefolkmusic #artistsbooks #indiemusic #jacksoncfrank #folkmusic #lush #aveytare #pandabear #goldenapplesofthesun #lookaftering #waywardjustanotherlifetolive #jimmypage #homeless #vashti #diamondday #heartleap #animalcollective
