JOHN & BEVERLEY MARTYN - Stormbringer! (Reissue) - LP - Black Vinyl

LP - Reissue, Black Vinyl

Originally released in February 1970 by Island Records this is the first album by John and Beverley Martyn. Following rehearsals in Woodstock, New York, Stormbringer! was recorded and mixed in only eight days, with engineer John Wood and producer Joe Boyd at the helm.

John Martyn, inspired by The Band's Music From Big Pink, worked hard to find a distinctive guitar sound and in two tracks ("Would You Believe Me?" and "The Ocean") introduced his pioneering guitar technique. Levon Helm guested on drums on two tracks while John Simon and Paul Harris are among the other contributors. Jazzy undertones, spirit lifting vocals, and buttery folk guitar leads for such a unique and beautiful record.
