Y'know watching Adamson ply his folk-powered guitar-sculpting* got me thinking: if John Peel was a bit off in calling Adamson "the British Jimi Hendrix", maybe's he could be better described as "punk rock's Richard Thompson". By the way, this long out-of print collection of miscellanea goes for between $79 and $365 on Amazon, so if you appreciate this being available here maybe it's time to see what's in the band's catalog.
Restless Natives & Rarities link is in the comments
Speaking of comments, thanks for your words on Adamson, Big Country (and The Skids!) thus far, please leave some words on this collection.

I loved the film 'Restless Natives'.
ReplyDeleteShame it isn't better known.
I was just thinking, you know who NEVER gets the respect he deserves?

ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteAny chance of a repost? Please please
Can you upload Rarities V, VI, VIII and VIII in FLAC? I have or will soon have Rarities II & III, I just received IV. I'd be willing to send you a copy of each for the blog. I find it outrageous Amazon are selling CD-R burns of the Rarities for 15.99 each, of which are no doubt sourced from .mp3s.
