    Good job, Mary. Not enough John Martyn around in general and that's from a great album.

      Agree. Not enough John Martyn around. This is one of my favorite songs. I think I've watched every YT-video with John Martyn playing it, and a lot of covers as well. Thanks to Mary, very well done. 👍

    First concert I went to was John Martyn - Sadlers Wells theatre 1987 - such a wonderful songwriter and exceptional guitarist. Thank you for this beautiful rendition, more John Martyn love needed in this world ⭐️❤️

    Impeccable cover, congrats.
    I saw JM in 1971 at Polytechnic of Central London (now Westminster College), when he was young and slim, entrance 60p. At that time he was touring a lot, played around 50 gigs in '72, often appearing with his contemporaries - Sandy Denny (his friend), Roy Harper, Steve Tilston (still performing), Claire Hamill, Sutherland Brothers, Principal Edwards Magic Theatre, Traffic, Free, and many others. There was a lot of live music at that time, pubs, clubs, concert halls ( Queen Elizabeth), unis, etc. A great performance, which I remember well. If I 'm right he was later newly appreciated by a younger generation.

      I must have seen him not long after that, playing with Danny Thompson. I had never heard a voice or guitar playing like that - I followed him ever after.

    Lovely. So glad he's still remembered. Thank you

      Indeed. This was also amply demonstrated by The John Martyn Project - not a tribute band (!) but a amazing reimagining and revitalisation of many of JM's work by enormously talented and creative musicians.

      @southsidejohnny5624 2 месяца назад +1

      There’s lots of versions of JM playing this but you’re right, that version with Kathy Matea and Danny Thompson is pretty special. You can tell by their reactions at the end that they thought so too.

    Yes Mary, two thumbs up. J.M. was such an influence on me in the seventies especially London Conversation pre "Solid Air" though I was kind of addicted to that album for a year or so. Having said that I think I own around ten of his albums on Vinyl. A great pity he died so young

      Alas, yes. I saw him a few times, once with Danny Thompson on bass. Sadly he was drunk every time, but as soon as he played it was so ingrained he was perfect.

      @BadYossa 2 месяца назад +2

      @@leegriffin1584 I saw him with Danny Thompson in Edinburgh in the late '90's or early '90's. - that was simply incredible. Only marred by yer man coming on stage fighting a roadie and ranting about a stolen bottle of JD. Quite surreal.

    • @stanby2712
      @stanby2712 2 месяца назад +3

      Pissed? I don’t think so. Stoned? Always as I recall. I saw him multiple times between 1968 and 1999 and always stoned and often passing joints to the audience. I’m over 70 now and so profoundly grateful to have lived through a golden age of music. Happy memories! Fantastic version Mary. ( maybe he was pissed and stoned ; my memory may be playing tricks on me as I was too😎)

    Not the easiest person to cover and not the easiest person to work with.
    I recorded one of his last songs, back in 2003/4 “Under My Wing” with Paul Weller. Ever since I’ve learned that, even the most eccentric or stubborn of artists feel most comfortable when you just let them do what they want regardless of what everyone else thinks 😂
