Footage of Richard Thompson performing a traditional song, about a Knight on the Road - but is he more than a Knight and why is he after a cheese sandwich? Performed as part of his '1000 years of popular music' show, The Barbican Centre, London, Tuesday 3 February 2009.
Good sound quality, but I didn't zoom in as I was filming on the sly!
@tipples1000 really???? Fleet Foxes are ripoffs of Thompson? The thing about music, which I am sure you are well aware as you sound like you are a professor of the art, is there is no best,better, worse etc..Its in the ear of listener. If you dont like the FF cover of this awesome song, I got a great idea........

Who else would have the balls, talent and credibility to revive tunes from so many centuries past? Rip-offs by the Fleet Foxes etc are pitiful by comparison. Thommo is a genuine national treasure.

Wonderful! I went to see Richard T in Perth, Scotland a few weeks ago and loved this song. Thank you so much for your sneeky bootlegging so I enjoy it again!
What concert was this by the way?
