Richard Thompson review.

[Sir C]

I will have to check it out. I've seen some crazy stuff online that I have no idea how they do it.

I'm never touching a guitar again. No point.

I just consider it something different.

I know my limits, I don't have the time to really practice enough anyway.
If i could play any style I'd love to be able to play country rather than shreddy metal waffle.

if i am lucky I can get an hour a day in playing but not lately.

A solo acoustic set from a guitar virtuoso, so you expect ranks of pre-tuned guitars and roadies fettling away... but no. Our man appears on stage, straps on his axe, and plays straight through a two hour set filled with self-deprecating humour and jaw-dropping guitaring.

A wonderful, wonderful show.

Fash, there was a song during which he was finger-picking and playing a bass line, but there was also a repetitive riff placed over the top which could only happen if he had three hands. It turns out he was creating this riff amidst the picking. Unbelievable, I've never seen anything like it.

Was that during Vincent Black Lightning? I’m told it’s a technique unique to folk guitarists - of whom he is obviously the doyen.

It may have occurred during the motorbicycle song but I noticed it during another.

He also did a terrific line in unreconstructed 50s rock n roll, and some rather more rocky numbers.

In more important news, Café Colbert is a Corbin and King which sits between Zedel and The Wolseley in terms of cost and formality, and is a perfect recreation of a Parisian brasserie right there in Sloane Square. I had the galette aux champignons sauvages, steak tartare and the Baba au rhum, served correctly with a glass of rum on the side. For v, the cassoulet followed by a millefeuille and r chose the chicken liver parfait and confit de canard. All was simply perfect. A very decent Pinot Noir from the Languedoc was not overpriced at £35. In short, Café Colbert joins the list.

He certainly does something similar during Vincent Black Lightning.

Do you know, I looked at the menu briefly yesterday and guessed that would’ve what r would order.

Oh, and he did 'Who Knows Where The Time Goes' as a tribute to Sandy. Beautifully.

Perhaps he was using loops like Ed Sheeran.

I've investigated. He doesn't. He just plays it with his fingers, man #realmusician #thesekidsknowfúckallaboutmusic
