John Martyn "Big Muff"

my fav version as well...what shows this from?

This is taken from BBC's Transatlantic Sessions. It was repeated on BBC4 recently

thanks!, dont get the channel myself

My favourite version of this song. Funky ass performance.

I always thought Big Muff / Powder Puff was about cocaine. If it isn't it should be. Lord knows you're trying to kill me...Whatever it's about, I love it. Long Live John Martyn.

i can imagine this being what 1989 1990

a big muff is a distorion effect john martin used for a lot of his recordings, it may be about another character, i dont know, but iam sure it was something to do with this particular effect he was know for using,unusualy, on an acoustic.........so there!

Most caterempously

Just for the record Scratch's wacky description of sexual union inspired Martyn, who was then working on his One World album; he thus wrote the song 'Big Muff', which Perry helped him record the next day.

granted,but it took 2 to make this track special
