Had the great pleasure of Riichard Linda and Simon at Manchester Uni Folk Club in 1974. In a smallish room folowing on Bright Light Tonight. First half mostly from LP but second half turned in to a rock and roll session never to be forgotten. Lovely Linda was wonderful.
Wonderfully all around. I didn't get to see Richard play live until the Hand of Kindness tour some years later and so this is the only live material I've heard and seen from both of them together pre-divorce
What a glorious recording. My phone is linked into my amplifier and the stereo image is perfect. For a 40 year old mixing desk recording that is one hell of sn achievement.
This is absolutely wonderful, thank you so much for posting. I saw Richard and Linda in the early/mid 70s, as a Fairport fan I expected it to be more like Fairport, and was quite disappointed. I wish I had known better and paid more attention.
The members of Fairport Convention have something one does not see in any other band in the world. They may not want to play together full time but they are still on each others albums, tour with each other and are still friends.
I've been a Richard Thompson fanatic for 35+years,but I never got to see any of this stuff! I've always been intrigued. ..this is both more AND less than I expected. He always surprises me! Thanks SO MUCH for posting this!
I know what you mean, I think. My conclusion is that he just didn't have the backing that he deserved.The likes of Michael Jerome and Danny Thompson are in a totally different league from dear old Simon Nicholl and Dave Pegg.
Yeah I had never heard Richard singing that, only the June Tabor version which is extraordinary too. Those lyrics - "Wake up from your sleep that builds like clouds upon your eyes". An amazing song.
Interesting that Richard does not offer a duplicate of the album versions, but each song is altered a bit. I like the cover of Crying in the Rain. Shows how respected the Everly Brothers were in England.
If Linda is a bit “shrill’ she’s compensating on top of mix. I’ve seen Richard a dozen times. He’s one of the finest guitarists and songwriters of his generation. But, watching this, it’s hard not to feel sorry for Linda. I don’t think Richard looked at her once except to cue her for Lonely Hearts. The rest of the time, he’s playing to the “boys club” with Nicol and Pegg.
Lovin' the up-tempo version of "For Shame of Doing Wrong." It's quite sorrowful that I missed seeing this pair in their prime by a country mile, especially during their post-Sunnyvista, pre-Shoot disintegration.
the first time i saw Richard and Linda they were on the break up tour...she would kick him during guitar solos....my drummer buddy cried because Dave Mattacks was so damn good...it was an amazing night....and there were many more Thompson shows after that....
I saw them at the Roxy in 1983. She was in splendid voice, Richard was subdued, other band members Dave Mattacks and Simon Nicol played great and made some humorous remarks but there was a sense of unease on stage. Linda made a comment about the wine "Love your California wine...tastes like nail varnish remover" and someone shouted out "Love your English cooking". No violence but still a tense night.
Simon Nicol looks like he's in the Small Faces and the drummer looks like he's in Sniff 'n' the Tears. 8-) (Thought it was Dave Mattacks but I guess not, per machendave's comment).
Well, actually, there was also a commercial VHS tape of them playing material from Shoot out the Llghts, which was sold by Carthage/Hannibal Records, but this show is better. Maybe this one is from just before the marriage fell apart?
I just recently discovered Richard Thompson's music and folk music projects he's been in with the wifey Linda but never seen a picture of her. Now I have and she looks great and can sing & front a band! Too late to tell Richard now what I was told 20 years ago by an old black man I met & told about my marriage breaking up..and he said "..you ain't gonna find nothin' better than what you got..." Word!
boboala 1 - welcome to the R & L T fan club - lol!! So much to discover!! On the romance side of things you might like to know that Richard has recently hitched up with a woman called Zara Phillips - English but living in the US - they live together in New Jersey and have done some lock down concerts available here on youtube - unfortunately the first two are marred by some kind of sound issue - but the third is sublime - their chemistry and love is clear - and - like Linda - she can sing!!
Some viewers/listeners may want to search "Richard and Linda Thompson biographies" and read that material, "caveat lector" "reader beware" of the summary form of lives described from outside, of course!
Hayden Childs has written a great little book about the recording of the 'Shoot Out The Lights' album. Fascinating reading even if Childs gets a little too poetic at times when interpreting the meaning of each song.
andymrice - I thought they had to carry on and do the tour (because the album was doing well and they were contracted by the record company) even though they'd split - isn't there a story told by Linda about how she went on a drink and drugs bender in the US - and how she would try and trip up Richard on stage?? Or was that the tour before the '82 one??
@@andymrice - thanks - I misread your comment and thought you mean't the 1980 tour - soz!! I have only seen RT plugged in and with a band once (Pete Zorn, Michael Jerome, Joel Zifkin and Taraz (sorry can't spell the bass player's name!!) at Brighton Dome during the Dream Attic tour - RT's guitar work was blindingly good - searing - my brother really only likes his acoustic stuff and isn't in to the 'heavier' guitar stuff - but I loved it!! Since then I've seen him solo acoustic a few times and missed a performance with just the drummer and bassist due to car trouble. Hopefully I'll get to see him electric at least once more !! Would've loved to see him in the early days but I didn't even know he existed until 15 years ago!!
@@andymrice - I had the chance to see Dave Swarbrick with Martin Carthy (whom I've met and what a nice, normal chap he is!!) in my own town a couple of years before he died. I had returned from Sidmouth folk week, was knackered, and couldn't be bothered - little did I know he wasn't going to be with us much longer!! His fiddle playing, song writing, and singing were all amazing - I see him as a kind of gypsy punk fiddler - lol - his style was so irreverent - so instinctual!! Fairport also played at the same folk festival but I didn't get a ticket - sold out!! Love to go to Cropredy - maybe next year!!
Is it just me, or is Linda struggling a bit with her voice? Sounds like she's having trouble hitting some notes. Every other recording I've ever heard of her - live or in studio - she sounds perfect.
She has suffered from dysphonia for decades - one opens ones mouth and the musculature just doesn’t cooperate. It derailed her career pretty much permanently excepting a brief but welcome comeback album several years ago.
I think also that it was very loud and difficult to hear what was happening. If the monitors aren't quite right you can't hear yourself above the cacophony of the guitars and drums. It's very far from the luxury of the studio where you can go in relaxed. It was probably at the end of a long tour. Some songs are easier to sing. Strange Affair, for example is quieter and as a consequence is much more successful for Linda's vocals.
The words to Strange Affair are very different from the recording. I thought Linda was improvising them but Richard joins in. It was originally a song about Islam, as in 'the world has no comfort at all; the only peace comes from Allah', but they seem to be talking about relationships, or theirs?
Didn't they become SUFI for a while - maybe they just want to put it behind them. I'll always LOVE them - just for who they are. The heartache of their relationship has defined them
Wrocker Paul - my understanding is that they were only allowed (by order of the Iman) to do music if it was about god - this means that songs such as Dimming of the Day are supposedly about god - but, just like Strange Affair, it makes more sense when considered as being about a human love affair: do we think that the Thompsons were playing it both ways with these songs??
@@iaingoodwin8514 I'm pretty sure they both left the group. It was a Sufi-based cult really. They now trade as the Murabitun and are notorious for antisemitic conspiracy theories and grandiose schemes that never come to fruition as the leader moves them from place to place. A lot of talent being wasted. It has been described as having a "staggering drop-out rate" and the drop-outs are better off out.
Wasn't this gig, although early in the year, the period where Linda was struggling to come to terms with Richard wanting the marriage to end ..?? I have read stories made by some of the tour group that there were very icy moments going on.... possibly this set is earlier than the time of that miserable tour, but I'm sure it was in 1980... A horrible shame at the time, now thankfully Linda has recovered that lovely voice and with the aid of their children they have found their way back to each other even if they are only friends.
No. The tour from hell was spring 1982. As far as I recall, none of the Shoot Out the Lights material is in this brilliant show, fully two years before.
There's a wonderful little book by Hayden Childs which centres on the recording of 'Shoot Out The Lights' and the difficulties the Thompsons were having at the time. Well worth reading even if it gets a bit poetic at times.
@@petermackie7233 That's right, isn't it. I saw a show from that tour in Toronto. It was great but like a raw nerve. I seem to recall Simon consoling her quite often. But it is just life. When they were good -on and off the stage- they were great together.
+GreenhouseCeltic I've only watched the first 4 songs, but I'm sure it's old faithful Dave Mattacks on drums. Terrific close-ups of R playing and Linda singing.
@@philmus1 Perhaps, but Peter is a more accomplished songwriter and bandleader, while still playing a pretty mean guitar. And Peter has continued to create, while RT has been treading water for at least 20 years.
Too bad they had to try to "Keep up with the "times" " - it's boring and repetetive - NOT DISTINCTIVE and UNIQUE which they definitely ARE. I've always loved them for who they ARE.
I know i shouldn't pry, but how could Thompson leave behind such a superb woman ? The sexy way she draws out the syllables, ever so slightly falls off pitch, and injects wail and sultriness. Maybe those comments below ( e.g. kicking Dicky on stage) suggest Linda was a difficult woman. Or maybe RT was a prick who drove her to it. Or maybe that's unfair to each. But such a shame. I love all they did together.
musik102 - I agree that at times she sounds off key - when singing "Don't let a thief " the two voices do not fit - but this could be a bad choice of harmonies that just didn't work? Mostly she sings fine and has a beautiful voice though.
What on Earth has this to do with Trump mate? It's spurious comment. I could say it's 2023 and the USA is fighting a proxy war in Ukraine that could possibly lead us to a nuclear war led by Joe Biden and the war mongering Democratic Party.
They don't look very happy do they? And it's noticeable they don't look at each other. The sound and mix aren't great, but there's not much wrong with the actual performances; they were very professional. If anything the situation gives some of the songs an extra poignancy. And they can't underline the point much more clearly than by covering Crying In The Rain...
They were breaking up and they were on two Island but still made great music together. I saw them around this time at the Paradise in Boston and when Linda wasn't the lead singer she'd head off state. But it was an amazing show.
I feel lucky to have gotten into Richard & Linda's music in the early 1970's while living in the USA. Richard's
career has been brilliant.
