Richard Thompson Richard Thompson/UK 2014

The latest live performance by Richard Thompson, a British folk rock heavyweight who just released his self-cover album “Acoustic Classics”. The performance at Crowley’s Hath Theatre on July 22nd from the latest UK tour in 2014 was recorded completely with an ultra-high quality audience recording. The recorder is a familiar taper who provides excellent high quality masters mainly in London and surrounding cities, and this album also allows you to enjoy Richard’s latest show with extremely excellent sound quality that you rarely hear. As a live performance accompanying the new work “Acoustic Classics” which re-records previously released songs in an acoustic style, the album includes songs from the album including I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight, 1952 Vincent Black Lightning, and Beeswing, which are the hot topic of the first acoustic version, and a fully satisfying unplugged set is performed for about 1 hour and 51 minutes. You can enjoy the show with the ideal sound as if you were listening to the official live album. You can check the setlists for other shows on the UK tour on the Internet, but it seems that the songs change daily and a variety of sets are being played. The opening act for the UK tour is the acoustic unit “The Rails” consisting of Richard’s daughter Kami Thompson and James Warborn (the Rails live performance is recorded on Disc 3. Kami and James’s superb twin vocals rooted in the tradition of British folk music and their beautiful guitar playing with solid technique are a must-listen). During the encore, the two appeared on stage and the three performed “Times Are Tough”. The recording shows that the audience were all regular fans, listening intently to the music. In the second week of August, they will play three shows in Europe, and from the 22nd, they will play seven shows in the UK again. From October, they will tour North America, and Richard’s latest live performances, which are still going strong, will be recorded in the ideal, highest quality sound that will make you think “it couldn’t get any better.” Please enjoy them to the fullest.
