"I've always thought of Martin as a terrific guitarist first and foremost. "

For a long time, Martin thought of himself as a guitarist - he once said that that he didn't think he had a great voice so he ended up accompanying other singers like June Tabor. Personally I love his voice, especially his phrasing. Until I went to see him live, I didn't know he sang, having only heard his Leaves of Life and When I Was on Horseback instrumental albums. Like I said, Dreamtime was the first song I heard him sing.
