Sweet Warrior
Sweet Warrior is Richard Thompson's first set of electric-based orignal material since 2003. The 14 tracks feature Thompson's sublime guitar work, but it never overpowers the classic sounding melodies.
There are a couple of anti-war sentiments, the highly-charged Dad's Going to Kill Me (the 'Dad' in this case being Bahgdad) and Guns are the Tongues a story of a suicide-bombing terrorist.
Recorded in late 2006, Sweet Warrior includes musical collaborators Danny Thompson, Michael Jerome, Sara Watkins (Nickel Creek), Judith Owen, and more.
