	Description:		To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the opening of Britain's most famous long-distance footpath, Plodcast host Fergus met folk singer Johnny Campbell to walk part of the route. Johnny is spending 19 days walking the entire route from Derbyshire to the Borders of Scotland – gigging almost every evening. His powerful songs are rooted in the landscape and the struggles of ordinary people to gain access to nature and fresh air. Listen on for a live rendition of one of Johnny's most famous songs. You'll also hear the voice of Johnny's friend and walking companion 'sherpa' Freddie. You can find out more about Johnny on his website www.johnnycampbell.co.uk and you can find his songs on all the major streaming services.
