John Martyn (blues, instrumental, jazz, rock, album)

The wonder that is John Martyn..........

Ok, so his music can span across Rock, Jazz, Blues etc, but I thought I'd go with the Folk board for now.

Do we have anyone who appreciates this wonderful talent on MB?

I've heard so many versions of many of his songs, I never get a chance to get bored of any of his music. Many people will recognise his name if they've read anything about Nick Drake - because Solid Air is linked with him.

Stand out songs for me include:

Over The Hill
Angeline
Couldn't Love You more
Head & Heart
Hurt In Your Heart
