Richard & Linda Thompson
London-born folk rockers Richard Thompson OBE (born on April 3rd, 1949) and
Linda Pettifer (born on August 23rd, 1947) first teamed up on two tracks from
Thompson’s debut album, Henry the Human Fly, shortly after the former Fairport
Convention frontman had parted ways with his band. This marked the start of a
ten-year romantic and musical relationship between the pair, who married in 1972
and released their debut collaborative album, I Want to See the Bright Lights
Tonight, in 1974. Despite being backed by Island Records, the sombre LP failed
to chart and was initially overlooked...
