Our Take

Ah, Stormbringer! That illustrious collaboration between two legends, John & Beverley Martyn. A true gem in the folk-rock crown, this album is a whirlwind of sonic bliss and musical mastery.

From its opening track, "Go Out and Get It," to the hauntingly beautiful melodies of "John the Baptist," the Martyns take us on a journey through the depths of their souls. Beverley's ethereal vocals soar above John's intricate guitar work, painting a picture of love, longing, and introspection.

But don't be fooled by the gentle facade – Stormbringer! packs a punch with tracks like "Primrose Hill," where John's raw, emotive voice cuts through the gentle strumming of the guitar, leaving us spellbound and yearning for more.

The production on this album is top-notch, with each instrument shining through in perfect harmony. The folk-infused arrangements are both captivating and refreshing, offering a fresh take on the genre without losing sight of its roots.

Overall, Stormbringer! is a masterpiece that stands the test of time. It's a testament to the talent and creativity of John & Beverley Martyn, and a must-listen for any music lover. So go ahead, treat yourself to this musical journey – you won't be disappointed.
