#316 Richard & Linda Thompson – I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight

Posted on by anoceanroars

I have never heard of I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight, but I have heard of Richard & Linda Thompson. The are folk musicians so I am not sure how I will feel about it. Folk music is a hit and miss with me.

The songs I like are “When I Get to the Border“, “The Calvary Cross“, “The End of the Rainbow” and “Withered and Died“.

Overall, I have nothing bad to say about this album. I do not hate Linda’s voice, but I prefer Richard’s. She is not as bad as Joan Baez. It is interesting that a Muslim is singing about Calvary Cross, but I think he became more devoted after recording the album. I like this couple, but they did not last long. 7.5/10.

…and i hate writing about myself. It feels awkward. Or i am a bit awkward and rather not write about it. i have not got a clue where to begin or end… …at this very moment i am a recent graduate of Colorado State University. i live in Longmont, Colorado, which i next to Boulder. Boulder is where all hipsters live. See, this crap is rather boring. i moved here from Budapest, Hungary four years ago, well, actually that is sort of a lie. i was living in Lyon, France one year before i moved to Colorado and before that Hungary. i like to travel or move. i keep moving… i have many interest besides moving: writing, watching, taking, listening and reading (stories, films, photographs, music and books).
