  • This is a brilliant performance and I guarantee you that if Richard Thompson is singing a dissonant note, it's on purpose.

    But then there's always someone who stands in front of a Picasso and blurts out: "No talent at all. That painting looks nothing like a real woman. "

  • "How is he even famous?????"

    Weird definition of fame you have, friend. There're a million infinitely inferior 'artists' far more famous than RT. If you don't like him, to quote another great songwriter, "You don't really care for music, do you?"

  • That man can play anything.

  • @Babaziba She looked underwhelmed with a lot of these performances. She might just be listening hard. or tired. I think with Thompson's rendition of Woodstock she was trying to figure out what tuning he was using. :-)

  • @sselt Right. Like someone said about painters and (modern) art: "There are thousands of painters who can paint a horse so that everyone recognizes it as a horse. And then there are some who can make you feel the horse."

  • Tightly wound, passionate, great guitar work (all of them), controlled chaos between verses. BIngo. Is it weird that Joni looks slightly underwhelmed???

  • rt is without doubt a genius regardless of the merits of this song

  • Thanks for posting this video! I am a big RT fan (isn't he sexy?) and JM fan familiar with this tune, and am so glad you defended his artistic integrity. Two musicians with a ton of integrity as well as terrestrial talent.

  • You have never had the privilege of seeing this man live. You will not be sorry, when he is doing his music he is incredible.

  • The backing band don't really fit with RT. They seem to be overplaying everything. It's far too cluttered. However RT is on top form as usual!
