about
Willie Watson’s new single “Dancing On My Own” is his answer to our collective self isolation. Inspired by frequent live streaming from home and recorded alone in his living room, this cover of the pop hit song by Robyn is transformed by Willie’s distinctive style into a new folk classic to help us navigate this “new normal” that is 2020.

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser.
Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this.
Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?).
With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
