John Martyn

JM certainly belongs here. A sort of semi-Scot, one legged, Davey Graham fingerpicking fucker and all round bit of a cunt. But what a wonderful man he was.... beautiful voice, lovely guitar style with his echoplex box, and wonderful songwriter........... If you kissed the sun right out of the sky for me, and if you told me all the lies that I deserve, if you laid all night in the rain for me... well, I couldn't love you more. And if you loved me till my eyes gave no more shine for you, if you walked beside me all the long way home, if you wasted all of your time on me.. well, I couldn't love you more - I just couldn't love you more. And if you gave me all the things I'd never ask of you, and if you showed me all the ways you have to cry, And if you laid all night in the rain for me ... I couldn't love you more..... I just couldn't love you more..... just couldn't love you more. Take that you rotten cunts.
