About this episode

Has anyone in the rock world maintained a longer, more sustained level of excellence than Richard Thompson? From his 1960s recordings with Fairport Convention through his most recent work, this British musician has been setting a ridiculously high standard with his razor-sharp songwriting and incendiary guitar playing. He’s a great storyteller in conversation as well; listen as he discusses mastering acoustic vs. electric guitar, the circumstances behind Sandy Denny’s firing from Fairport Convention, his invitation to join the Eagles, his studio work with Badfinger and more.
