John Martyn has died. Irreplacable, incomparable, my inspiration and all time favourite. A real shock. Wow.

Go buy the album "Bless The Weather." if you ain't got it.

One very sad day for me and many others.

I'm a big fan of his work. He was introduced to me by a mad old toker about 15/16 years ago & I went out the same week & bought that album. Not sure about the last few years, but he used to live no more than about 15 miles from me here in the Clyde valley.

RIP John
