Van der Graaf Generator’s Peter Hammill reflects on his groundbreaking solo album Nadir’s Big Chance, 40 years old this year. Sitting in the upstairs lounge of a reassuringly old school boozer on a squally, rainy Thursday in a post-new year London, 2012 Prog Awards Visionary Peter Hammill is clearly not suffering the January blues. The flippant, jaunty The Polaroid was released on seven-inch. Sung in mockney, it was as if Nadir had been possessed by Ian Dury; a little more Chas’n’Dave than Eno’n’Dave. The Polaroid was pretty throwaway. I’d done it, and I let Charisma put it out. It’s a bit of an idiocy. I don’t think it’s part of my mainstream oeuvre. I don’t want to delve too deeply into that, he laughs.
