I haven't been able to stop playing Dream Attic since I bought it last weekend. RT at his best yet again. This is one of my favourite tracks so thanks for putting it up. Damn, I wish I could write songs as good as RT does! ..... must get back to work now.
I've only seen Richard Thompson once - solo. That was rather amazing. Of course I have a bunch of recordings now, but I'm thinking I really need to this guy live and electric with a band.
Terrific music, but much as I love to watch RT's fingers working miracles I think it's a pity that we couldn't see a little bit more of the other musicians, especially when they are soloing. As Joel Zifkin is a new kid on the block I would like to have seen him in close-up.
@BQMAGOO1 Damn straight. Wasn't thinking in those terms but you're absolutely right. This is a ready-made hit for any number of female country artists (Miranda Lambert, Martina McBride, et al).. You get to say " I told you so" when one of them cuts this...and I'd be willing to lay even money that it happens sooner than later. Good call there.
Honest to god this man is a legend - how is shite like Ed Sheeran and Kanye West headline Glastonbury and not Richard Thompson - he's got more talent in his thumb than sorry lot of X-Factor Millennials we get thrusted upon us by the labels these days ! June 18 Queen's Hall Edinburgh bring it on !
Saw the show at the Alladain in Portland, OR. Holy cow is he ever back with a vengeance!

This was a awesome show! Saw RT at the Scottish Rite Auditorium 10/26/10 in Collingswood, NJ. Great place to see an intimate show!

Saw RT at Nottingham a few weeks ago and he was a revelation to me. Absolutely awesome...I've since bought 6 albums !
Richard, please come back to the Cali coast, i missed you last time and i can't stop kicking myself.

Typically Awesome. Tasty violin is waaaay overdue in the RT Band!!
This is just yummy. Good old RT!
Well, I'm off to order the discs. {8-}
I have seen him twice once with his exe and once solo
@ollythedolly
In interviews he's made several references to using a Divided By 13 amp. Don't know if that's what this is.
R.I.P. Pete Zorn.
I'm always amazed when I find someone with such talent that its scary - they keep claiming SRV was a god - he ain't shit compared to RT !!!!
