4.0 out of 5 stars Probably the 4th Richard Thompson record you should Buy, 20 Feb 2001
By P. Bryant (Nottingham, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
After the unsurpassable "Pour Down Like Silver" there was a dismal silence of three years, during which Richard seriously considered giving up the music business. Think of that! We'd all be writing about him like he was Syd Barrett II if he had! But he came to his senses and recommenced his life work to make everyone very happy by creating many very miserable songs. If anyone sounds happy in a Richard Thompson song you always have to figure it's because he's stopped taking the proper medication. Anyway, "First Light" is wonderful. Some quite sumptuous melodies with a very Arabic flavour to them, and "Layla" which isn't by Clapton, and Richard's disco hit "Don't Let a Thief" which is a No 32 if ever I heard one. Lovely! Oh, and "House of Cards" is about the Iranian revolution. I love this record.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't let a thief, 20 May 2008
By D. Parker "davdor4" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was destined to be the final Richard and Linda Album, and along with "Henry the human fly" and "Bright Lights" it is one of my favourite Thompsons albums. Songs like "Restless Highway", "Died for Love", "House of Cards", "Don't let a thief steal into your heart" and the song that Patrick Humphreys chose for the title of his biography of Richard Thompson "Strange Affair". Despite the turmoil of their marriage and the impending divorce the musical partnership still showed all the class of their act and Lindas voice soared above the matrimonial problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful, 12 Jul 2007
english folk with a touch of electric. heart-felt, sad. Died For Love is one of the saddest loveliest romantic songs of all time. nick drake would have been proud of it
