When David Byrne (of Taking Heads fame) was asked to comment why Richard Thompson was so poorly appreciated he said (mischievously I assume) "Serves him right for being so good." And he really is.
OK, maybe this is not his very best work but it is live (Thompson is a phenomenal live performer) with an up-tempo, catchy tune and wildly contrasting lyrics of desperation with hope. In the middle is the huge bonus of the Thompson guitar, this time frantic and raucous, reflecting the harshness of the lyrics. Many (including me) regard Thompson as one of the GREAT guitarists and this is a nice example.

Got this track as a free download so I couldn't go wrong. An excellent
live recording of an uplifting track. If this is the standard of the album I would say it's a must buy.

Richard Thompson is a legend, plain and simple. He's been around since the early days of rock/folk and knows his way around a heartfelt guitar based song.
This new sampler from the new album is a cracker, it rumbles along as proper blues rock should with a hint of country/folk and is brilliantly sung.
It's free, why would you not download it? Unless you're in Ireland in which case, it's worth buying.

Richard Thompson Amazing!
Really like this tune by Richard Thompson. Discovered him years ago in the seventies and he never disappoints.

A bit like the baseballs
To be honest this guy sounds like a rockesque country and western elvis presley baseballs impersonator. I like it. Read more
