This video starts with John breaking a string on his guitar, which he then quickly replaces before a beautiful rendition of 'Solid Air'. From the DVD - 'John Martyn: The Man Upstairs' - http://www.amazon.co.uk/John-Martyn-Man-Upstairs-DVD/dp/B000TSJVJ4

Nothing short of amazing!!!

JM always compelling to watch, even when he's re-stiringing his Martin D28.

What a performance. To have a BEing like John pen a tune with such powerful lyrics for a friend struggling with life; as John himself did in his lost love; Your heart wraps around each note + the pain is felt with each note + word. Thanks for my UK Angel that shared this link + to the poster; Bless you too. Magnificent. THE guitar string snapping+ John's masterful restringing it soooo skillfully--> something I am so glad happened; because that was an orgasmic-experience all its own.:-))) YEP.;)

pure magic from 3 24 onwards.....

'I know you. I love you. I will be your friend. I will follow you anywhere. Even through solid air.'
This performance moved me to tears. Absolutely amazing.

Classic, classic,.....this captures the JMartyn solo concert atmosphere with 'the' classic JM song to my mind. ..and the *sound* he got out of a guitar together with *that* voice...almost unbelievable if I hadnt seen it again..
