Roy Harper, maybe the best folk musician to come out of Western Europe?

He reached cult status, but never global status, possibly because he got his cock out on one of his albums cover

Intricate guitar playing, controversial lyrics, epic songs

Me and my woman, from his most influential album "Stormcock"

Random spotify recommendation!

Had never heard of him, only made the connection to who he was from Sydthebeats post above.

I was watching a Pink Floyd documentary a few weeks ago where they discussed how Have a Cigar came about.

I gave Stormcock a listen last night, and will definitely work my way through some more of the back catalog.

' Hallucinating Light ' from the ' HQ ' album is one of my favourite songs. The album is really excellent without filler.

I remember this was the last track on an uncut magazine free cd about 10 or 15 years and the song blew me away...it is about Tony Blair but could just as easily apply to Trump/Johnson etc
