On today;s podcast I had the honour of speaking with one of my heroes, the artist Jim Fitzpatrick who brought us the iconic painting of Che Guevara, who brought the essence of Thin Lizzy to life on their classic album covers, who worked intimately with Sinead O’Connor and who’s life passion is Celtic mythology.

Jim celebrates his 80th birthday in December of this year and on part one of a two part podcast he speaks about his early life, a bout with TB, picking fruit with George Harrison, the accidental meeting with Che Guevara and a career in the marketing world.

The iconic painting of Che Guevara brought lots of attention and lots of work and then came Thin Lizzy and a special friendship with their charismatic driving force, Phil Lynott 

Enjoy the show..
