I've always loved this guy's voice, and his version of Woodstock still blows me away. I just don't like the music to this version..it's too "marchy" or something...like Plant's cover better. JMHO...peace,
I saw Ian perform twice in the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix. This was always my favorite song he sang. I don't know what ever happened to him, does anybody else know?
Been looking for this version. Used to play this when I was a kid as it was one of the 2000+ albums my parents had in the living room. Used to crank it LOUD! Memory and time confused this album for Gary Wright's The Dream Weaver, which they also had, because both have images of 70's haired ascot-wearing men on them. Glad I finally found it! Thought I was going crazy!
I had the album, Go for Broke, but hadn't thought about it in years. Used to play it all the time. Thanks for posting this. His music had an ethereal, melancholy quality that was beautiful.
Ohh finally!!! Exactly 33 years I was looking for this song.didnt know who sang it .I only knew name of the song. And about a year ago I revealed it was Iain matthews. while looking for this song Ive heard a lot of versions. But no other comes close to this one.this is full rich with vocals with melody and the mystic feeling. it digs swiftly deep into the subconcious. try to listen to it on earphones in the middle of the night when theres no other sound. astonishing effect!! thanks
