Our Take

In a world where folk music reigns supreme, John & Beverley Martyn's Stormbringer! stands out like a plaid-clad peacock in a sea of bearded troubadours. This album is a sonic journey through the whimsical minds of two musical geniuses, blending traditional folk with a healthy dose of psychedelic funk.

From the opening track, "Go Out On the Road," it's clear that John & Beverley are not your average folk duo. Their intricate guitar work and haunting harmonies create a rich tapestry of sound that draws the listener in like a moth to a flame.

Tracks like "Traffic-Light Lady" and "Tomorrow Time" showcase the Martyns' ability to infuse their music with an infectious energy that is impossible to resist. You'll find yourself tapping your feet and humming along to these catchy tunes in no time.

But it's not all peppy melodies and toe-tapping rhythms. Songs like "Root Love" and "Don't Like It" delve into darker territory, exploring themes of love, loss, and longing with a raw intensity that is both heartbreaking and beautiful.

Overall, Stormbringer! is a must-listen for any music lover looking to expand their horizons and explore the vast and diverse world of folk music. So grab a cup of tea, put on your favourite pair of headphones, and let John & Beverley Martyn take you on a wild and wonderful musical journey. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
