John Martyn - Bless the Weather

Here’s a fine album of acoustic guitars, soft vocals, careful thoughts and eyes rested casually over your shoulder. “Head and Heart”, above, has some great acoustic guitar playing as it steps offstage into the woods.

Nick Drake’s friend, Martyn shares much of his aesthetic, but for better and for worse is either less engaged in his conversations with the eternal or less over-matched by them.
