May you never lose your temper
When you get in a bar room fight.
May you never lose your woman overnight...…….

This wonderful guy was part of the soundtrack of my youth Smithy. I saw him in Sydney way back in the early 70s. I still have his original stuff on vinyl. Do you have "No Little Boy" and "Church with One Bell" ?

Re: John Martyn

Anyone see this when it was broadcast?



He was a genius musician but not a terribly nice person away from it. I saw him in 74/75 and was blown away.
