I actually got to interview Richard Thompson once (actually, I was accompanying a friend who was the main interviewer). It was a Legends of Guitar festival in Seville, Spain. I was accompanying a friend who edited Guitar World Magazine at the time. He was very sweet to talk to (I put my foot in my mouth-he plays Ellington's Rockin' In Rhythm on Henry The Human Fly-I asked him if he played it in real time. If I paid more attention, it was obviously overdubbed. RT was a bit embarassed, said no, it had to be overdubbed, but was kind to me...)

I believe RL now lives in Joisey, my home state.. Have seen him do a good number of solo shows, including an outdoor pandemic performance. Seem a few of his "all request" shows, which are a trip!

At one request show (he places slips of paper at every table, has you write in 2 requests, then draws them at random from a bowl and plays them), he got a request for The Beatles "And Your Bird Can Sing", with it's multiple fast guitar lines. He ALMOST pulled it off...
