John Martyn Grace & Danger

John Martyn has always invited danger into his life. As a man who lives his life close to the edge, Martyn leaves himself wide open to criticism and ridicule. As a musician, singer and songwriter he remains incomparable. Heavy drinking and erratic behaviour have regularly blighted his career and personal life, yet in a recording career that has spanned over five decades he has produced more than twenty albums, incorporating elements of reggae, jazz, blues, folk, rock and hip-hop into his unique sound. Martyn's music has bewitched and enthralled audiences across the decades. With the classic albums, Bless The Weather, Solid Air, One World and On The Cobbles, along with the extraordinary performances with Danny Thompson in the 70's, his legendary status is assured. Written with contributions from his friends, colleagues, managers and ex-wife, Beverley Martyn, this long-awaited biography reveals the compelling and turbulent story of a wayward troubadour.Barry, Lee is the author of 'John Martyn Grace & Danger' with ISBN 9781847289889 and ISBN 1847289886.
