Well he's pretty damn good I'll agree with you but Phil Keaggy is the greatest I like to see Richard Thompson Bruce cockburn Phil Keaggy and Joe Satriani get together and some kind of bluesy extended Jam
It’s now 50+ years since I first saw him in with Fairport Convention London and he is still an all time favourite, still captures the Angst of just existing in a crazy world that is getting crazier.
@@nancyschaeffer-katz9605 - yes, despite everything the world is beginning to look a little better lately - lol!!! And listening to the sublime RT just makes it all the better!!
yup---figured not many Thompson fans still around that'd notice. BTW----last time i watched Fallon I looked over at Dorothy and we had the same thought "What grade is this shill in?" C'mon Jimmy---every actor, every movie, every song, every musician, every new NBC show, every celebrity and personality can't possibly be the greatest can it?"
@scooby who I don't normally respond to those who lack the courage to post under their own names, but I'll make an exception for you, cartoon person. Yeah, they did.
The finest guitarist who ever lived. I know it's subjective, but I don't care!
I agree completely. Richard Thompson is the best.
Your statement is factual. RT grabbed my heart and soul 30+ years ago and never turned loose. Okay, I gave those to him willingly.

I feel the same way.
“Don’t know the rules but I’m stuck in the game…” says it all…❤️
OMG this man and his band have no end of talent.

@Brian Carroll - I think you've totally cracked what RT's songs are about in a single sentence - well done - I couldn't have put it better!!
If you can sit still to this you aint got a pulse . . . .
artgeminiacle Yeah . . . no shit!
Such a sweet man.
I think Richard is my long lost soul brother; love him!
I was at this one!
RIP Zorn, Swarb
dude has a great voice
Suits the mood of the day for me. Drowning in political garbage y'all. Haul me up. Love this song.
@Nancy Schaeffer-Katz - feeling any better now?
@@honeychurchgipsy6 Much! Thank you. 😁

Richard is only at his very best live
Richard was born to play a Strat.
and a Fender Ferrington which is, I believe the name of this particular guitar here - Love the tone!!
That's a Stratocaster. Ferrington is a boutique guitar maker, not a Fender model.
what a grove
Daniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats absolutely ripped this off for "S.O.B."
