When I found Johnny. I never lost him again. ❤️☮️
This is the most beautiful song ive ever heard
Magnificent.
His life took him far away from home in a musical sense this was such a pleasure to see him home and at his pleasure ...the expressions postures and overall demeanour a word cannot describe I'm preserving this myself I don't want this to ever be taken down.
this man's voice could break your heart
My word i've been listening to this since I found it in 2009 and by God it gets even more powerful as I age

Same for me!!..
I shook John's hand twice, but this is the first time I've heard this version. Thanks, Danny, for a lifetime of good tune & the good friends you've had.
Johns voice is in fantastic form, what a pearl of a version
I hope you read these comments, Danny. Thank you, just thank you!
I couldn't keep my eyes dry listening to this one. Thank you!
Magic
C'è una sofferenza e malinconia incredibile nella sua voce....ho sempre adorato John
Yes indeed , so much Beauty here!!..
This takes me back to 1973 to 75 ish - listening to solid air etc on wgbh from Georgetown university on fm… my first exposure to lots of amazing music - and whfs, high atop the triangle towers in Bethesda, mb lol
Love this and the May You Never performance from transatlantic sessions, such a great series.

Ok, but the greatest JM's cover on the Transatlantic Sessions is Solid Air with John and Danny. Not ethereal like the original but bluesy.

Nice one Danny. You excelled on these sessions. Thank you for posting this.
this looks and sounds fantastic. very talented bunch of musicians.
Lovely stuff...
yes, just yes.
thank you so much for putting those Transatlantic Sessions on youtube in high quality. Have been listining to them on youtube for 10 years and always in shitty quality. Finally I can hear and see everything. They are timless works of art and deserve to be enjoyed and listened to.
How I miss you John
Sublime ☺️

Ms. Beverly Martyn, I am sorry to learn about you having to suffer so much through him. I know that was bad, bad. But one thing you are not right, his music. When he had an instrument, he is the best human in the world.

@@AntonyFleck He had a lot of demons. But when I listen to his life version of John Wayne on German TV, my god, how he was John Wayne for 6 minutes ...
Doesn't need the extra musicians. John and Danny only stripped back version better.

That's the great thing about music it can be played many ways it certainly does not hurt the song in any way
For John Martyn read Gordon Lightfoot .
Thank you Danny Thompson.
Brilliant singer songwriter but a truly hideous domestic abuser , he deserves to rot in hell.
