Doug Johnstone - Crow Hill & The Great Silence

For the latest SWH! podcast Ali caught up with an old friend of the podcast, writer and musician Doug Johnstone - the fourth time he's been a guest, but the first time since 2015. A lot has happened in the meantime and Doug talks about his new solo album 'Crow Hill' and the third in the Skelf series, 'The Great Silence'.

The two also discuss the stroke Doug had at the beginning of Lockdown, his recovery from it and how it affected both new releases, his move to Orenda Books, his musical past and present - including the story of the Fun Lovin' Crime Writers - the joys of the Skelf novels, and a whole lot more. It's a cracking conversation, as it always is with Doug, and it was great to have him back.
