Clive James(1939-2019)
- Writer

While at Cambridge, Clive began a fruitful songwriting partnership with
Pete Atkin. With Clive's lyrics and Pete's vocals and musical settings,
they released six critically-acclaimed but commercially unsuccessful
albums in the early 70s before Pete moved on to audio production at the
BBC. Clive toured with Pete in a words and music show promoting the
final album. They have recently re-united on stage and in the studio
for more of their trademark songs, which have been described as
"somewhere between The Kinks and Steely Dan" (quote from NY
Times).
