25 years ago today, the Bonar Hall was the venue for an evening with John Martyn, singer, songwriter and guitar maestro. His laid back singing style and the things he could do with effects pedals were a joy to behold. He had released a few classic albums by the time this gig came about, so there was plenty material to dip into from his back catalogue. He kept his career going in fact, right up to his death in January this year.
I saw him a couple of years back at the Beinn Inn. He was amazing, if totally pissed out of his head and semi-legless.
