I have this CD set and adore it. The best singers in the world have come together to reclaim this song tradition. Richard Thompson has me from the first line. What a beautiful voice! Deeply felt. As usual. Thank you.

On Dec. 3 (2011) I attended an all request performance by RT and requested this piece. Luckily he chose my (or someone else's request). As expected it was absolutely magnificent. What an artist!

Vocal harmonies are amazing -- who's singing backup here?

@RisingOfTheMoon The complete lineup is:
Richard Thompson - vocals, guitar; Jack Shit: Val McCallum - guitar; Pete Thomas - drums; Davey Fallagher - bass; also- Richard Greene violin; Michael Thompson - accordion; Debra Dobkin - percussion; Doug Pettibone - guitar
- so it has to be the musicians who don't have to hold their instruments in their mouths ;) But you are right: They really do fine.

Who did the artwork in the video, is there a larger version of it? I'd love to have that painted on my Jackson Kelly :) and yeah Everything Richard Thompson does is awesome, i'm a metal guy but damn he shames a lot of the shredders, he's amazing.

@eakinj I gave two links for the image behind the "Used in" link in the description -- you might try to get a bigger version there :)
(Heck, this linking restriction in the comments is a nuisance...)
