Karafiat, who has also played with groups like Garage and his own Joe Carnation Band, had first met the Plastic People’s Vratislav Brabenec in the 1980s when the two were living in exile in Canada, but didn’t become a member himself until 1997. When I met Joe Karafiát (53) in Prague last week, we first discussed his beginnings as a musician. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/karafiat_joe.jpg?timestamp=1591309982 Joe Karafiát – guitarist and songwriter with Plastic People of the Universe https://english.radio.cz/joe-karafiat-guitarist-and-songwriter-plastic-people-universe-8574817 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
