Very interesting but, there's always a but. Mention K T Tunstall and Ed Bloody Sheeran but say fuck all about John Martyn doing more or less the same thing 30 years earlier.
Lenny Kaye
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.
Re: Lenny Kaye
He was true original, John Martyn not Dave. He mixed all sorts of "genres" to produce a unique sound. I was never a huge fan and saw him just once in 1979. Mesmerizing would be the word I'd use to describe it. I understand he was a complete bastard in his personal life mind.
