Of course it's interesting. Bicknell's the Man! I don't think we would have a lot of MK nowadays if Ed hadn't done his job well back then.
It's absolutely worth those 30 minutes.

not saying it ain't worth listening, just that the mk related content is thin.

It's a very interesting look of the industry from the eyes of a respected manager. Bicknell also played a big part in getting the success of Knopfler and the band..... really interesting interview imo

I agree.. he must have some amazing stories. His candid view of his hate for record companies is genius. lol They have rinsed both artist and consumer for years..... I hate record companies :)
