"Richard Thompson & Shawn Colvin" : THE WEEKEND MIX



From Valentine's Day of 1994, please enjoy a stellar, late show set from Richard Thompson and Shawn Colvin, recorded at NYC's legendary Bottom Line.

This performance has it all--great guitar playing, Band covers, a Neil Finn cover, and the very droll humor of both RT and SC.

Someday remind me to tell you my Shawn Colvin/Richard Thompson story.

Let's just say she never thanked me.

Not apropos of Thompson and Colvin, but did you see your boy Todd Rundgren was in the audience at American Idol Wednesday and got a huge shout out from Randy Jackson, who seemed to imply that they'd worked together? And it wasn't even Utopia week! Then Iggy Pop performed last night, shirtless of course. My 14-year-old daughter went from being repulsed to thinking he was kind of cool by the end of his song. What any of this means about the future of American music, I don't know.

I noticed that Thompson is supporting John Prine on a few dates this summer...keep an eye out.

Our local music co-op (who just brought The Blasters here two weeks ago) brought Richard Thompson in for a solo show a few years back. If anyone had been on the fence about him as a guitarist (or singer, or overall entertainer) going in, they left as believers. An amazing show.

Thanks, Sal, this looks great!

Thanks, Sal. I love Shawn since her debut album "Steady On". She is a superb performer and a writer. Most of all, I love her VOICE.
