Named by Rolling Stone Magazine as one of 2003’s Top 20 Guitarists
of all-time and the recent recipient of both an Ivor Novello Award for Songwriting and the
2006 BBC Lifetime Achievement Award, the iconic British folk rock legend is one of the world’s most critically acclaimed and prolific songwriters. His work is admired and recorded by such artists as Bonnie Raitt, David Byrne and Elvis Costello. From his teenage years as a founding member of the 1960’s pioneering group Fairport Convention to duo work with his then-wife, Linda Thompson, and over 20 years as a solo artist, to scoring Werner Hertzog’s 2005 documentary ‘Grizzly Man’, Richard Thompson’s astounding body of work includes over 40 albums of lyrical wit anchored by such a singular acoustic and electric guitar delivery that Newsweek recently announced, ‘like all genuine art, it satisfies completely.’
“In the guitar god firmament, Thompson easily takes a place beside Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page. He has certainly been the most consistently imaginative English plank spanker of modern times.”

I was at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival got to be like 15 years ago. Had a couple friends with me from New York and we were a having a wild time. I was a d.j. from a college radio station and had a show called Dr. Digger and the Medicine Show, a lot of folk, bluegrass, Richard Thompson of course and other world music. My buddy motions us to head over to a friends RV and someone opens a window and rubs something on my hand. I don't know what it was but i had an incredible feeling growing inside me. Then we saw some music nearby and sat down near the stage and listened to this guy playing incredible guitar and singing some really cool lyrics, yea it was Richard Thompson.

I've dearly loved his music over the years. What more can I say. I collected every Richard Thompson work that I could get my hands on over the last 2 decades. He's that special!

I also had "Live, More or Less" back in the day. The studio side is 'I Want To See the Bright Lights Tonight" which is still available on CD. Check it out, I think the CD even has the live version of Calvary Cross as an additional track. The live stuff was also released in Britain around the same time as "Guitar, Vocal" (which has a few extra tracks). That made it to CD reissue, and although I think it's out of print now, it should be available used. It has those wonderful versions of Calvary Cross and Night Comes In. I think the 'Best of Richard and Linda Thompson' compilation also has the live 'Calvary Cross' included, although most old-skool Thompson fans will have most of the stuff on that CD.

The Canadian double album from '72 0r '73 called Richard Thompson "Live' More or Less is long out of print. Half of it was studio, and the other half contained fantastic live performances of things he had realeased up until that time including an incredibly grim and powerful version of 'Calvary Cross'. Does anyone know if these live recordings have resurfaced on any of the subsequent reissues or anthologies? I used to love to hear them back then, over and over; I played them incessantly. I had taped the album from a friend's vinyl copy ( sorry Richard, I was but a mere poorboy from a northern factory town) , but that has gone on to the next world. My cassette 'has withered and died'. But then, there may be few individuals as ancient as myself hanging about in here; perhaps this record has been cast to the wind forever.

Saying Richard Thompson is a gifted guitarist and songwriter is like saying Torvill and Dean could skate a bit.His standard of playing is pretty much without peer in popular music circles and probably one of Britains most accomplished and prolific songwriters
