good excuse to post this ... again

Just found out what this post is about. Another legend gone.

Weirdly enough, I put on my Danny Thompson 'Wotcher' t shirt this morning.

[super al]

That's sad news, I love Danny's bass on those John Martyn records. I spoke to him briefly in the bar of the Winchester Theatre Royal after a sparsely attended gig there. 

 

I think at the start of the gig he acknowledged and spoke about the lack of an audience but the performance he and his band gave was excellent, that was around '92/'93 I reckon.

 

The only other time I saw him live was with Martyn at Salisbury City Hall, I think he did Blue Monk. There was a fair bit of banter between them, probably the main draw for the tour 😄.

DT was the URB player of all time. For me at least. His was work with Pentangle and later Martyn was pure magic.  What a shame, a one off.

I've been in awe of Danny ever since I heard this back in the early '70s.
