Release Notes: 1000 copies pressed. Rare unreleased live set from the late, great guitarist and singer songwriter who circumnavigated folk, jazz, country, blues and progressive rock’s nuances. Inspired by guitar stylist John Fahey, his impromptu performances were adored by everyone from Bowie and Elton John to Thurston Moore, Bill Callahan and Lucinda Williams. An original favourite of Peel’s Perfumed Garden in the 70s, a contemporary of Bert Jansch and John Martyn, his gritty weathered vocals and infectious playing resulted in a cult revival in the 2010’s from where this intimate recording took place. “A legend the likes of which don’t seem to be written much any more.” The Guardian.
