After watching a performance like this - particularly the ROVW riffs - I am alternatively inspired to practice all day....and put the guitar away forever!
The funny thing is, Richard Thompson today has said in interviews he doesn't think much of his guitar playing back then. He says "I'd let him play rhythm for me." lol
a lot of people have told me that I'm a really good guitar player...um no. Richard is a really good guitar player. that entire performance just gave me such bliss. thanks for posting.
This isn't even that great a technical performance from him -he makes a couple timing mistakes- and he's still miles beyond most guitarists musically. Just a great musician, songwriter and showman.
