Richard Thompson - “Crawl Back (Under My Stone)”
This song, from the legendary guitarist’s 1999 record Mock Tudor, finds him in classic form, with his witty songwriting and expert playing at the forefront. After he made his mark with British folk band Fairport Convention, he made several albums with his now-ex-wife Linda, including the critically acclaimed Shoot Out The Lights, which some consider to be his best work. His playing also graces songs by his son Teddy Thompson.
Teddy Thompson - “Don’t Know What I Was Thinking”
The golden-voiced son of folk legends Richard and Linda Thompson, Teddy has been a KXT 91.7 fixture ever since we launched back in November, both with this song and “In My Arms”. His latest release A Piece of What You Need highlights his simple, retro sound, excellent songwriting and stunning vocals. Also worth a listen is Up Front and Down Low, featuring his takes on a few country classics.
