8th August (evening) 2019 at the Ham Marquee, Sidmouth.

Sidmouth Folk Festival (previously called Sidmouth Folk Week).

Country: Britain (United States resident). Style: Contemporary Folk.

Lineup: Richard Thompson (v/g) and guest: Zara Phillips (v).

This was the nineth time I have seen Richard Thompson live: once with Fairport Comvention (in 1970), four times with an electric band, twice in a duo with Danny Thompson and now twice solo. I took photos the last two times before this which were of the Electric Trio (www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/albums/72157632962609052/ and www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/albums/72157676442788997/). His set included many of his classics e.g. “Beeswing”, "Vincent Black Lightning", "I Want to see the Bright Lights Tonight", “Wall of Death”, "Galway to Graceland".
In this photo: Thompson plays a Lowden guitar.
