John Martyn: So Far So Good
09 Apr 1977
JOHN MARTYN was explaining Sunday's Child, the title track of his last new studio album recorded in 1974 and released in the first month of '75. He said he was a Saturday's Child really, but would've liked to have been a Sunday's.

The Bottom Line:
Rather strange promo compilation from So Far So Good period.
Side A contains mainly bad rock music apart from the reggae track by Rico Rodriguez. On side B John is surrounded by country music, flamenco guitar and a miserable attempt at Bonzo Dog humour.

JOHN MARTYN is a genuine original and we should cherish him.
Hardly prolific (his last studio set was released in January 1975), Martyn is one of those rare artists who has displayed a talent for musically progressing from one project to the next.

For those of you who do not know, let me merely say this: John Martyn is Britain's number one singer/ songwriter. Absolutely. Without doubt.

The agony and the ecstacy on tour with John Martyn. First aid by VIVIEN GOLDMAN.
JOHN MARTYN rivets attention performing. You'd be wrong in assuming that just because he's one-man-with-a-guitar he doesn't make every crevice of the stage swing.
