controversial of figures. His skill, stage presence and natural charm have won him
many admirers, not only from within the folk scene, but also far beyond it.
Trailblazing musical partnerships with, amongst others, Steeleye Span, Dave
Swarbrick and his award-winning wife (Norma Waterson) and daughter Eliza Carthy
have resulted in more than 40 albums, but Martin has only recorded 10 solo
albums, of which the much anticipated Waiting for Angels (Topic TSCD527) was the
latest. Whether in the folk clubs (which he continues to champion), on the concert
stage or making TV appearances (he was the subject of the acclaimed `Originals;
music documentary strand on BBC 2) - there are few roles that Martin Carthy hasn't
played.
He's a ballad singer, a ground-breaking acoustic and electric-guitarist and an
authoritative interpreter of newly composed material. He always prefers to follow
an insatiable musical curiosity rather than cash in on his unrivalled position.
Perhaps, most significant of all, are his settings of traditional songs with guitar,
which have influenced a generation of artists, including Bob Dylan and Paul Simon,
on both sides of the Atlantic.
