RICHARD THOMPSON


Well here's a treat for a Friday morning and Big O have posted a recent (Sept) set from Richard Thompson at the Americana Festival in Nashville. Richard is simply my favourite living singer songwriter and probably the best guitarist in the world alongside Ry Cooder for these ears. But where Ry maybe edges the guitar work (dependent on my mood) Richard excels at songwriting strange mysterious acerbic songs about life, relationships, morals and the human clay, folks songs for the 21stC.
Simply put he is a master . . . .







All of these tracks for the most part (bar two?) serve as an advert for his latest album '13 Rivers' which you can find here
