Action Packed: The Best of the Capitol Years

Action Packed: The Best of the Capitol Years (2001) more music like this

by Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson has been the archetypal critics' favorite since his days with Fairport Convention in the late '60s and early '70s, a guitarist of obvious skill and originality who brings the fingerpicking prowess of folk to electric rock and, increasingly, a literate songwriter whose songs, by turns droll and dour, are sung with authority, but he ...

Waitin' for the Hard Times to Go

Waitin' for the Hard Times to Go (1993) more music like this

by The Nashville Bluegrass Band

Waitin' for the Hard Times to Go is an excellent collection from a stellar bluegrass band. Instead of choosing to follow either a traditional or progressive direction, the Nashville Bluegrass Band decide to alternate between the two approaches, which makes it a considerably richer and eclectic record than most contemporary bluegrass albums. Waitin ...

RT: The Life and Music of Richard Thompson

RT: The Life and Music of Richard Thompson (2006) more music like this

by Richard Thompson

Given the length, breadth, and impact of his career as, arguably, the most revered figure in British folk-rock since he first joined Fairport Convention in 1967, it's no surprise that Richard Thompson has been honored with the multi-disc box set treatment not once, but twice. In 1993, noted Thompson, aficionado Edward Haber compiled Watching the ...

Kambara Music in Native Tongues

Kambara Music in Native Tongues (1998) more music like this

by Martin Simpson/David Hidalgo/Viji Krishnan

Continuing in Water Lily Acoustics' series of sitting down musicians from different musical traditions to find common ground (which reached its pinnacle with the awe-inspiring collaboration of Ry Cooder and V.M. Bhatt on A Meeting by the River), Kambara Music joins guitarist Martin Simpson with Los Lobos singer/guitarist David Hidalgo, violinist ...

Open All Night: On the Road

Open All Night: On the Road (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

This installment of Rhino's Open All Night series makes it explicit that the 18 songs are designed for driving -- even though that was pretty much understood to be the intent of the other volumes of Open All Night. This time, there are some songs that explicitly address the road (Little Village's rather irritating "Don't Think About Her When You ...

Amnesia

Amnesia (1988) more music like this

by Richard Thompson

Amnesia was Richard Thompson's second album with producer and keyboard player Mitchell Froom, and the two sounded a lot more comfortable with each other than they did on their previous project together, Daring Adventures. This being a Richard Thompson album, the high quality of the songs and the guitar playing is a given; while Daring Adventures ...

Watching the Dark

Watching the Dark (1993) more music like this

by Richard Thompson

Multi-disc box-sets usually fall into two categories -- they're either overstuffed "Greatest Hits" compilations, or packed with enough rarities to ensure loyal fans will part with their money. Since Richard Thompson's career hasn't sent him perilously close to worldwide stardom, the triple-disc anthology Watching the Dark was created with the ...

Barking Mad

Barking Mad (1991) more music like this

by Four Men & A Dog

A debut album with fire, the instrumental work is really superb, but the singing and songs are pretty dispensable. Steve Winick, All Music Guide

World Is a Wonderful Place: The Songs of Richard Thompson

World Is a Wonderful Place: The Songs of Richard Thompson (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

What with its chamber-orchestra version of "The Knife Edge" and Ron Kavana's talking-blues rendition of "I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight," this Richard Thompson tribute album is certainly quirkier than its direct competition (Beat the Retreat, released on Capitol in 1994). It will appeal more to purists, partly because Bonnie Raitt and ...

From the Heart of Studio A: The Folkscene Collection (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

If you like folk music and have ever lived in Los Angeles, chances are you know the names Roz and Howard Larman. Their FolkScene radio show on KPFK has been an L.A. institution since 1970, and one of its highlights has been visits to the studio by just about everybody you can think of from the world of folk. There have been more than 1, 500 such ...

Bringing It All Back Home, Vol. 2 [Valley] (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Like its predecessor, the second volume of Bringing It All Back Home, a trilogy of albums drawn from a five-part 1991 BBC documentary, traces "the influence of Irish music" (as the subtitle says) with a combination of traditional performances and original material. On tracks specially recorded (and in some cases written) for the documentary, Irish ...
