Richard Thompson - Crawl Back 

Outstanding!!!! Favourited for future watching...many thanks for sharing!!

Bloody Hell!!! It doesnt get better than this. Amazing Talent!

Definitive Richard. Watching this is like taking a master class. Totally inspiring. The pinnacle. Amazing improvs on this one. Thanks for posting Brilliant. Who needs a band?

Unfreaking believable. RT=God. Thanks for posting.

This is why you need to see him live.

That was astounding. I have goose flesh. such talent.

This *is* a pretty spectacular version. I suspect there's not more comments because there's already several versions of this song on RU-vid, and a lot of people, like me, just never got around to watching all of this one.

If this was at the Kent Stage I was there and it was absolutely incredible!

As far as the "hybrid" picking he's using, he does this on electric too - check out some of the other videos on RU-vid for examples.

Where's more Richard Thompson please?

Let's not forget that RT's old pal Simon Nicol is a hybrid picker too. Imagine two of 'em in the same band. I miss Fairport!

Back in the seventies us acolytes had a standing joke: "Richard Thompson". "Who"? What REALLY annoys me is that he writes songs as well. Takes me all my time to remember the Sweetex in my tea...

Does he use a pick with his thumb/index finger but his bare fingers with his other three?

Good.

Best version so far. But since RT continues to get better, just wait until next year and there will be a better one! Maybe if the twits at Rolling Stone saw this, they'd rank RT a little higher than #19 on their infamous list.

I think maybe Richard's a little tired of this one. I was at one of the all request shows last month and it was the only request he refused to play except for a couple others he felt he couldn't play.

Fucking expert, that.

dont mind me, just a regular internet- goer with crappy gramar
