Even tho you can see it on his face that he's a little pissed off to be performing in some kind of a dinner club, his guitar sounds like crap, but he casually rips through Easy Blues and Solid Air like a true legend he was
Thanks very much for this..John Maryn playing on the Renfrew Ferry I think in 1995- theres another upload of some of this performance.but this includes also 'solid air' from that night- brilliant - plus this is v good video quality. Much appreciated -Ian
@@jbojoify You're absolutely right: what I meant was the concert clip on the video, recorded on the Renfrew ferry, as it says at the end of the clip, BBC Scotland MCMXC (1990). I was at Kingston Polytechnic in 1970 when John Martyn played there. Great times!
@@jbojoifyl saw him in 73. He was more thinner and had more (curly) haïr. During this time, on his Martin guitar, there was a deArmond pick-up. It's the John Martyn from the very end of the 70's and probably the beginning of the 80's.
Ferry gig in '90 for sure. Was there....part of his entourage. Travelled from the hotel to the gig in a taxi with Billy Bragg & Edi Reader either side of me. Stuck in the middle of them holding the travel Monopoly board so the could keep the game going. 😂😂😂
