comment
  • Come chitarrista si notano le diverse influenze del suo stile (che spaziano da Buddy Holly e James Burton fino a Les Paul e Django Reinhardt) e la sua predilezione per l'improvvisazione che preferisce rispetto agli assolo. La sua prima registrazione avvenne nel 1967 come componente dei Fairport Convention. Nonostante i suoi album da solista (spesso realizzati in collaborazione con la moglie Linda) non abbiano mai raggiunto un successo commerciale importante, è considerato un songwriter di alto livello e un ottimo chitarrista, sia dal vivo che in studio.

  • Richard John Thompson (Londen, 3 april 1949) is een Brits zanger en gitarist. Thompson werd vooral bekend als lid van Fairport Convention, een invloedrijke folkrockband die mede door hem was opgericht en die in de daaropvolgende jaren een belangrijk stempel drukte op de Britse folkrock. Nadat hij deze band had verlaten begon hij een solocarrière en vormde hij enkele jaren een duo met zijn toenmalige vrouw Linda Thompson. Thompson geldt tot op heden als een inventief en technisch zeer begaafde gitarist. Hun zoon Teddy is eveneens actief als zanger en gitarist. (nl)
