I smiled when he said he never spoke to Bruce Springsteen when the opportunity arose, becasue what ever he might have said would have been wrong: I felt the exact same thing when I was in a similar situation in a room with Martyn himself after one of his gigs! I'm a proud owner of twenty of his CDs and a fan since the days of his shiny blue jacket. What a journey!
He's one of our generation's finest story-tellers and performers. I urge all who are within shouting distance get to one of his concerts: Tell him Lynda from Berkeley sent you !~! I've seen him live a dozen times and cannot wait for Number Thirteen. His way with words is up there with Bobby D, Phil Ochs and Bruce. I love him and play no other artist in my car's CD-for over twelve years and continuing.
for years i been trying to track down the chords for weight of the world from the treasure the question album ( not the other later song of the same name ) can anyone help please
Holy **** where did he get those population stats from to suggest that half the population of Wales live in Cardiff?. How about you divide the population of Wales by 2 and multiply the population of Wales by two. GREAT singer though

Glad you turned me onto him. He is great.
Great interview. The tone and technique Martyn get's from his guitar is spellbinding, great songs and powerful vocals... yeah, I think he's cool.
Hope to go and see him this year and I encourage you all to look for his tour dates in 2105
AWESOME, looking forward to seeing him live in 2015.. ;-)
Fascinating. Always worth listening to
