Richard Thompson is an English guitarist, singer and songwriter, born April 3, 1949 in London, celebrated for masterful musicianship and darkly witty lyrics. In the late 1960s he co-founded Fairport Convention, whose blend of traditional British folk and rock inaugurated British folk-rock. He left in 1971 for a solo career and a 1970s recording partnership with his wife Linda Thompson, and has since spent decades as a solo artist
