about
VALTZ TRISTE Recorded at Sandy's in Boston in 1980 with Milcho Leviev, Bob Magnusson, and Carl Burnett. I absolutely love this weaving waltz. It sounds like time or fate or inevitability. This band was so wonderful. At around 8:30 or 8:40 you can hear Art's delighted chuckle at what Milcho just did. (PS I've posted this before. Just made the most minor modifications to help you hear the piano)

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompsonsupported by 4 fans who also own “Valse Triste”
John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP.
