fleabag Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Top geezer bloke. Been very fond of his DB playing since i first bought Solid Air back in the 70's which i still own, but also his work with Nick Drake, which i also own and nor forgetting his pre Martyn and Drake stuff with Pentangle, and yes i own some Pentangle as well. Coolest DB player around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiliwailer Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) Cheers for the link. In the mid 00’s I saw the reunited original Pentangle line up - THAT tone he has sent shivers down my spine, to hear it live and that loud was truly something special.

geoffbassist Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Thanks for the heads up. I'm a big fan of Danny Thompson, he's such an incredible musician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCrane Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 To misquote Tom Lehrer, "Danny has been a particular idol of mine since chidbirth". I would happily pay to listen to him tuning up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldslapper Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Thoroughly enjoyed that, thank you. Love old muso stories, my favourite kind of interview. Probably not for gear heads 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
