    I saw him open for Yes back in the 70s playing solo like this with nothing more than an Echoplex, a volume pedal and a fender amp. It was a perfect warmup for a Yes who were in their prime. The experience of seeing one man create such a fullness of sound and fine music has stayed with me to this day. I'm glad this is here so people can see what it was like. Thanks for the post.

    Similar to many, i just caught this on the Guitar Heroes song and both myself and my partner sat mesmerised for the duration. There's something undefinably perfect about this song.

    Hi Guys, you can download this version from Play. com, obviously type in John Martyn then " live Hippodrome 1977 " in the download section, it downloads straight to itunes, ive done it and im lovin every minute of it!

    Yeah- i googled him the other night, its a real shame- he got an OBE this year too from the queen, i hope that kinda cheers him up. Im just happy i was sober enough to press record on sky + to keep on watching it when there is nothing on telly! I still cant get this tune outta my head- its top

  • @leethemackem
    @leethemackem 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Holy shit- i seen last night too after a few beers on guitar heroes! It blew me away along with obviously santana and Dire, the guitar on this sounds amazing, your right about popular music- it aint a patch on stuff like this.

    @mbroughton 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You guys have said it all. We must all have had te same experience! Say it on guitar heroes, Had to watch it twice. Woke up next morening and had to listen again - and here i am now. What an amazing guy. 1977! Jesus.

    Superb!
    I never knew that a guitar could be played this way, until I istened to this.
    Utterly outstanding, and a perfect representation of subject matter.
    It never gets old.

    john martyn is one of the most inventive and creative musicians i listen to one of my favorites , when hes sober , my dad saw him live in the 80s told me he was drunk on stage and just sounded like noise , sobriety + john martyn = Win

  • @djdaedalus42
    @djdaedalus42 16 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I gotta try to put this in context. John got the first half of a one-hour show. "Dealer" was the last song he did. He was shuffled off to make way for the band "Racing Cars". They were never heard from again. John blew the first half on a performance of "Outside In", then "Spencer the Rover" and "Dealer". Probably the best performances he's ever done. I would like to know where I can get a copy of this video.

  • @coreenaford
    @coreenaford 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yep...we certainly did have the same experience! What a totally trippy tune, way ahead of his time and completely genius and I'm ashamed I've not heard it before. . . it's not like we hadn't heard of him before is it?!

  • @esskaysea
    @esskaysea 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @crazymanmichael100
    @crazymanmichael100 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I remember seeing this, when it was first shown, it was the first time I heard him. It blew me away the way he played. John started with outside in, outstanding version. Sadly because the band Racing Cars overran john only played three numbers, Spencer The Rover, was the other one. You Tube do not have Outside In from this concert which is a shame.

    Superb!! I saw him in Glasgow in '77 at the Pavillion and this was the version of Dealer that he played that night. Never thought I would see it again - nice upload!!

    @Steevlan1 Saw the same billing at MSG in 1973 I was all of 13 yrs old .Blown away by JM and the echoplex That was it onstage just him and 4 House spotlights shining on him. Someone threw a frisbee up thru the spot beams in the middle of this song and he saw it and said "Wooooow" all the while playing with out missing a beat.
    Long Live John Martyn !

    The way he plays this makes it so discordant, yet it works perfectly.
    It the best representation of being under the influence of a class A drug that I have ever heard.
    I dont advocate using, but this is utterly superb!

    The biggest difference between music of now to this is that THIS grabs you by the heart and lets you in.
    Modern music thumps you around the head demanding attention.
    Love you John you will be missed missed missed.......

    @EddieG1888 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Waggonerslad I don't think he is tuned to CFCCGD here. From what I can make out, he's tuned to AGDGAD, though tuning the A string to G could well be wrong. But to play the chords the way he's playing, the other tunings are about right.

  • @mantra9990
    @mantra9990 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've got it on C F# C# F# G# C# which seems to work.
    He's probably dropped the tuning a bit more to save his voice it also helps with those bent notes as the strings are quite loose.

    Well, I cannot be your lover and I will not be your friend
    Well, I know you say you need me but I have no time to spend
    We could talk like this for hours, I'd just end up getting bored
    'Cause no one needs a dealer just a day before a score
    Let me in, let me in
    Let me in, sweet darling, let me in, let me in
    Let me in, let me in
    Let me in, sweet darling, let me in, let me in
    Do you think that you could leave me?
    Could you leave and go away just for a little while?
    Do you think that I could leave you?
    Could I leave and go away just for a change of style?
    Well, the children ?up there? dig my shit so I sell it to them cheap
    Better bring the scales and check the deal, getting scared that I might cheat
    Well, you're just a speck of polish on the fat man's shiny shoes
    And I think I hate them for it and I think they hate me too
    Well, you spend your whole life moaning down the telephone for bread
    Can't get your sleep for trying, darling, remember what you said
    You come around most any time, sell me ?what you can?
    What you see is what you get, catch me if you can

    @DeadWhiteButterflies Can I just ask why do you wish more ppl could share his music, the vast majority of ppl like to be spoon fed processed crap, John and the 000's of other talent musicians are there for people like you and me who can be bothered looking for it. John always made a living I am quite glad he never made it massive Every one of the 20 + time I saw him live was packed out, whether it was a big theatre of a little pub gig. I hope I don't sound as thou I am having a go cuz I'm not.
