The Best Live Albums Of All Time
Live albums featuring Richard Thompson feature in the best folk albums and the best singer songwriter albums. Sadly he’s never had a period of sustained popularity and I fear that, once again, his albums will be under-rated.
You can get these albums from Amazon.com – Amazon.co.uk.
Because there are so many excellent singer-songwriter albums with very different styles, I have split the poll into two and you may find some of your favourites in the second division. Albums will be promoted when they get enough votes.
