  • Description

    Great live performances by the acknowledged master of the guitar - great sound too! First time officially available in the UK - Bootleg USA is definitely not a bootleg.

    Put together by Martin Simpson himself from several concerts just before he left the States to re-settle back in England, it has been out of print for some time and has never been available officially in the UK. Mixing superb acoustic guitar solos with some fantastic songs from the likes of Richard Thompson and Bob Dylan, Bootleg USA is a great sounding live CD from one of the UK's foremost musicians.

    Martin Simpson's understanding and mastery of music are such that although this is a technically faultless performance, technique in itself never intrudes between the musician and the listener: he is "at one" with his instrument, leading to a direct communication of emotion."
