Description

Debut solo album from the influential British folk-rock pioneer Richard Thompson. Originally released on Island in 1972, the album showcases Thompson’s remarkable, singular talent. Feted as their lead writer, Richard Thompson left Fairport Convention, the group he founded in 1967, in early 1971. Recorded at Joe Boyd’s legendary Sound Techniques studio in Chelsea in February 1972, ‘Henry the Human Fly’ is a 37-minute collection of everything that makes Thompson so cherished today – well-written vignettes with an emphasis on shadow, a cast of curious characters, all wrapped in his warm folk-based musical drone.
