Adamson is briefly mentioned on Dave Graney's late 2000 US/UK tour diary: (thanks to Nic Stronell)30/11 We meet Barry Adamson in a cafe in Soho. He is looking great after the last five years of leg and hip
operations. He has just finished a new cd and is looking forwad to playing live with a fit body. He also says
