Myles McCabe (ME REX / Fresh)

Myles McCabe tells me the oral history of Megabear, the tour that changed his perception, selling his dad's invention of magnetic glasses frames, a short stint as a children's entertainer, working for a charity for people with learning difficulties now, the process of making Megabear - including years of working on it without knowing it would work, making the album with Rich Mandell and the Jono Ganz artwork, how we wants other artists to follow the shuffle-album concept - and more, probably.
