THOMPSON RICHARD - CD STRICT TEMPO

Popis - STRICT TEMPO:
Richard Thompson has been a vital figure in English music for over 40 years. A founder-member of Fairport Convention, he made several acclaimed albums with his wife Linda and then moved into a highly successful solo career.
Thompson's first solo album was "Henry the Human Fly" in 1972. He then made several albums with Linda Thompson and it wasn't until 1981 that his next solo album, "Strict Tempo", was released, on his own Elixir label. This is an instrumental album, on which Thompson plays everything apart from drums, which are handled by ex-Fairport drummer, Dave Mattacks. Material is mainly traditional jigs and reels, with an original Thompson song and a Duke Ellington cover. Features new notes on each song by Thompson. Initial orders will come in a special limited-edition card sleeve, with the packaging then reverting to a more traditional jewel case.
