Richard Thompson-Live at Celtic Connection

Filmed in January 2011 at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow as part of the annual Celtic Connections festival, this superb performance by The Richard Thompson Band marks their first live concert DVD release for five years. The first half of the show focuses on Thompson's latest Dream Attic album with the second half given over to songs reaching back as far as his first solo album Henry The Human Fly and up to recent releases such as Sweet Warrior and The Old Kit Bag . Thompson's distinctive voice and unmistakable guitar style are well to the fore and his band are as good as it gets. This will be a must have purchase for any Richard Thompson fan. / Bonus Features: Two tracks filmed at the 2011 Cambridge Folk Festival: 1) Uninhabited Man 2) Johnny s Far Away / Line-up: Richard Thompson (guitar, vocals); Michael Jerome (drums); Taras Prodaniuk (bass); Joel Zifkin (violin, mandolin); Pete Zorn (guitars, flute, saxophone, mandolin) / TRACK LISTING: 1) The Money Shuffle 2) Among The Gorse, Among The Grey 3) Haul Me Up 4) Burning Man 5) Here Comes Geordie 6) Demons In Her Dancing Shoes 7) Big Sun Falling In The River 8) Stumble On 9) Sidney Wells 10) A Brother Slips Away 11) If Love Whispers Your Name 12) The Angels Took My Racehorse Away 13) Can t Win 14) One Door Opens 15) Al Bowlly s In Heaven 16) I ll Never Give It Up 17) Wall Of Death 18) Tear Stained Letter 19) Take Care The Road You Choose 20) A Man In Need
