Richard Thompson crashes the barriers between electric and acoustic music: he plays wild and dangerous guitar while playing heartfelt, passionate and wonderfully affecting songs. Richard Thompson is one of this country's greatest songwriters and most distinctive of guitar virtuosos, capable of breathtaking drama and sublime delicacy, prompting Rolling Stone to hail him as 'a perennial dark-horse contender for the title of greatest living rock guitarist'. His songs have been covered by everyone from R.E.M. to Elvis Costello. He returns to the UK to tour with a powerful electric band.
