Creative Accounting
Creative Accounting is an original podcast where David Simmons recollects, recounts and shares his remarkable encounters with a legendary who's who of rock 'n' roll icons - including Lemmy, Danny Sims, Bob Marley, Lee "Scratch" Perry, Peter Green and Culture Club. It's also an intimate first hand account and conversation between father and son. As fragments of music industry fables that have been passed round family tables like Chinese whispers throughout the years, are finally captured on the record and laid down naked and in the open for all to hear and enjoy.
