    Ian, you have given me so much pleasure, release and beauty. It's just such a shame you had your own demons to battle but I guess we wouldn't have the music you made. You remind me so much of my brother, another loon who died at 52 & from his own drug use. He introduced me to your music. I know you are truly free now

    British music legend for sure.
    I love John's music.
    He certainly was a talented artist ☺️

    Thank you for the comments. For some reason this documentary went out of circulation for a while but a friend had a copy along with some early John Martyn albums which I hope to also upload in the near future. Great to see the constant interest in the late Johns music. Thanks.

    He is a true legend, only got to meet him once, and seen him play, but he had a lasting effect on me, and is never out of my head.

    I'm pleased someone took the time to upload this... I recorded it myself off of the BBC when it was aired and I was surprised that it didn't make its way here straight away....so thank you for uploading....Kev

    I went to Les Cousins a few times in 1967. Saw Bert J who was too drunk to play. Spider John. And Al Stewert who I didn't like. Drove back at about 3am on my Vespa and ran over a very drunk Irish fella in shepherds Bush. He stood up and apologised

    A true one off, who did things his way and was happy to accept the consequences whatever they be. Ultimately, death.

    ok Bev, but I think you were totally mismatched, no wonder how bitter you became later, given that Iain had more talent in his pinkie etc, saw u @ Edinburgh, which proves my point, you still couldn't carry a tune in a bucket.
