According to Musicweek.com, LED ZEPPELIN and THEM CROOKED VULTURES bass legend John Paul Jones will pick up an honour at next month’s Gold Badge Awards.
The Basca-backed awards will be presented at the Savoy in London on October 20th and Basca chairman Sarah Rodgers says this year’s gongs will acknowledge people who work in a wide variety of fields, from journalism to session work.
“A Gold Badge conveys so much that would otherwise be left unsaid,” says Rodgers. “It says, ‘what you do for us songwriters and composers is remarkable and has not gone unnoticed’; it says, ‘we couldn’t do it without you’.”Among the other 2010 award recipients is Clare Torry, who famously performed the soaring vocals on PINK FLOYD’s 'The Great Gig In The Sky'.
