Henry Scott-Irvine Presents Knox of The Vibrators Saturday 30th October 6pm-7pm Repeating Thurs Nov. 4th at 9pm till 10pm ... Radio Scarborough online and on air.
11 years ago I spent an hour with Knox discussing his life. Knox Carnochan, front man and singer-songwriter of the Punk band The Vibrators witnessed and participated in the best of British Rock Music across four decades. Knox witnessed The Beat Boom, Psychedelia, Glam Rock, Punk, New Wave, and The New Romantics. In 1976 he famously supported the Sex Pistols at London's 100 Club. The Vibrators went on to become one of London's top acts, appearing on many TV shows spawning hits such as Baby Baby and Automatic Lover. They have been on bills with the likes of Iggy Pop and David Bowie. Knox continues to play great acoustic sets 'live'. Knox is also an accomplished oil painter. Look at the self portrait attached here. In December 2021 the original Vibrators line-up will reform for one night only in London. The interview here formed the basis of my nine page feature in 2015 for Record Collector Magazine. Henry Scott-Irvine Presenter-Producer
