Subject: RE: Obit: Bassist Danny Thompson (1939-2025)
Thanks Ray and MM - I’m seeing so many on-line tributes to Danny referring to him as ‘Pentangle bassist’. It’s sad to think that he’s being remembered in such a limited way - he was a supreme musician whose work went far beyond one comparatively short-lived band (excellent though they were).
Here’s Danny with John Martyn and Kathy Mattea, playing a superb version of ‘May You Never’ on Transatlantic Sessions. Enjoy…
