In these days of short attention spans and abbreviated everything, I applaud @JoshM for writing in-depth like this and creating a true reference piece of work. This is amazing. I'm a big fan of John Martyn's work, including Solid Air and other albums such as Grace & Danger, and Live At Leeds (DR 14). Now, to track down the Island Years box! Thanks, Chris. If you want a new, physical copy of the box, this is the best place I’ve found to get it. The Computer Audiophile 1 🔊 The Best Version Of... 🎧 Link to comment
Josh Mound Posted January 12, 2022 Author Share Posted January 12, 2022 In addition to "Grace and Danger," I really like "Inside Out" and "One World," too. Really, he has albums throughout his career that are worthy, even if some are very uneven. 🔊 The Best Version Of... 🎧 Link to comment

Being a moderate fan of John Martyn‘s music, I find it particularly special every time I got time and chance to listen to it. Your expertise and passion to deliver a profound contribution of this artistsˋ single album really leads me to invest some time to deepen my experiences with his music. Kudos for the time and efforts you put into this, it is really appreciated. I miss more of this masterclass-worthy works to really getting into a particular topic like an absolutely in-depth analysis of an old but rather still relevant artists’ work. For me the article is well balanced between explaining personal circumstances, Zeitgeist and valuation of technical as well as quality implications of different published versions. What a bliss over ‚reviewing’ with a 30-lines compressed print of ‚just another remastering of just another dude‘ - just to have it covered, too, compared to the competition. And by the way, Nothing beats the original pressings - normally. Thank you so much for the kind words! 🔊 The Best Version Of... 🎧 Link to comment
