Martyn live niet in creatieve impasse
UDEN - De Schotse zanger/gitarist John Martyn weet zich al enkele decennia zonder noemenswaardige hitsuccessen verzekerd van een vast publiek.

Guitar-playing per excellence was mixed with rock nostalgia in La Buvette on Saturday night when veteran rocker John Martyn and his band teased and conjured their way through two hours of memorable music.

John Martyn betoverend
AMSTERDAM - Europa's belangrijkste popfotograaf, Anton Corbijn, portretteerde hem ooit als een in monnikspij weggedoken zonderling met een naar binnen gekeerde blik.

John Martyn has now spent 23 years ignoring fashion; a veteran post-hippy bluesmith whose followers seem willing to die for him, he appeared swathed in moody lighting singing about sweet love, sweet little mysteries, fishermen, and other long-haired concerns.

John Martyn Il Poeta Delle Piccole Emozioni
Chissá perché un musicista, un autore, un cantante del calibro di John Martyn non riesce a veder riconosciuto dal successo commerciale le sue notevoli doti? Quale strano meccanismo avrà in qualche modo impedito ad uno degli autori più interessanti della musica inglese degli anni Settanta ed Ottanta di diventare una star?

Martyn remains one of the best
THE SAYING goes that old hippies fade away. But John Martyn is the exception to the rule - as he proved at the Hexagon last night. After more than 20 years on the circuit he just gets better, turning in a tight and brilliant set.

John Martyn has a seriously hard time of it. OK, the Wets themselves idolise the man but he might as well be one of the Stones as far as the schoolgirls of Glasgow are concerned. They're not actually rude to him, he's just completely ignored.
