Nice one Conan. James Grant formerly of Love and Money, did 'May You Never' as an homage to John Martyn on Sunday night at the Sunday Herald birthday party. Many of the journos present actually stopped looking over the shoulders of the people they were ignoring and glanced at the sight of a few fans singing along.
It was his guitar playing which hypnotised me years ago although his music became rather too 'electronic' for my taste in recent years.
ReplyDeleteA true musician.
I choked up a bit on reading this. One of my all time favourites. Still got all his stuff on vinyl. Cheers John and thanks for the tunes.

ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not Omar is big on John Martyn and has honestly recorded a RaP version of 'Fairy Tale Lullaby' and sounds ace.
You should hear Omar singing some of John Martyn's lyrics, he is brilliant and has a really good voice.
