Review:
Brilliant stuff
Of course this is brilliant - it's the great John Martyn
playing some of his greatest songs.
Personally, I've always liked Martyn's acoustic work the best (I make
some notable exceptions for brilliant
electric tracks like Sweet Little Mystery and others) because I think acoustic work usually suits
his voice and delivery best and shows what a brilliant, brilliant guitarist he
was.
This is a compilation of album tracks, live recordings and
alternate takes (some unreleased) and it's all just great stuff. For seasoned fans like me it's worth getting
for the new stuff and if you're looking for a place to start with John Martyn
you could do a lot worse than this. It's
a really good compilation and a fitting tribute to one of the greats of the
last 50 years.
