5.0 out of 5 stars Sublime.The Master of Blues-Folk serves up another classic. 7 May 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This album has served me well over the years.It never fails to satisfy that need to just remember how real and simple music can be. How good it is to just sit back and listen to some honest but extraordinary musicianship.This album draws you in and makes you its best friend. Before you know it you'll be constantly coming back to see how it's getting on, to find that it's "doing just fine thank you, and how are you?".

Danny Thompson on double bass with Martyn's distinctive guitar work is surely one of the greatest partnerships of all-time. It is a privelage to have the opportunity to hear how good Blues-folk music can be. This album along with his "Inside Out" and "Solid Air" albums are among the best recordings of the early seventies and demand to be alongside Stevie Wonder, Miles Davis,The Beatles, Stones et al. Do yourself a favour for such a low price you would be getting a serious amount of talent for your money and a lifelong friend who'll be there when you're getting stressed with the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Under-rated brilliance 24 Feb 2009
By Benny Placido
Format:Audio CD
A truly great album from the now sadly deceased John Martyn. There will never be the likes of him again, but at least we can glory in these fabulous albums. This album in particular is sadly under-rated, containing as it does, the genius of Spencer the Rover, Sunday's Child and the immense Lay it All Down with Danny Thompson on bass. Heart on sleeve just doesn't convey the emotion. Genius.

3.0 out of 5 stars Parson's egg 20 April 2009
By BORU
Format:Audio CD
I had remembered hearing Spencer The Rover, years ago and heard it again, on a recent tribute tv programme, toJM. In nmy opinion, this is the best track on this record and for myself,I,m happy to have bought it for this alone - beautiful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just superb!
This is one of John's best early albums. The classic track "Spencer the Rover" is perhaps the stand out track but the other tracks are not far behind. Love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bonus tracks are for once exactly that - a real bonus!
Even if you already have this on CD, get the extended reissue with bonus tracks. The unreleased studio track 'Ellie Ree' is a lost gem - simple, acoustic, solo - and the 5 tracks... Read more

"Sunday's child" is a bit of a disappointment after the glory of its predecessor "Inside out". To be sure, there are some great tracks here, like "One day without you", "My baby... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars 'Sunday's Child' is full of grace
John Martyn's 1974 album carries on the fine run of classic early/mid severties albums which mark him out as a rare talent. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Sunday's Child....full of grace
1974 and John Martyn is on a roll. Following 'Solid Air' and the vastly under-rated 'Inside Out',JM continued in a rich vein with the release of 'Sunday's Child'. Read more
