Name: Dimming Of The Day (Richard Thompson) by Kim Guy in Folk - Old & Less So...
Duration: 3 min 32 s
Description: From my "Wednesday's Child" album, here's a bare-bones recording of a song from the wonderful Mr Richard Thompson,

This my favorite cover of this song.  In fact, this is my favorite version of this song.

love your version, so beautiful better than RT

Truly lovely, Kim... it touches the heart xx

i cant say what i'm feeling .. i cant find words ..

Sometimes singers get too wrapped up in being at the "center" ...you do a real nice job of cooperating with the Music :] <br><br> Great sense of Rhythm & subtlety! 

Clean, warm, deep and just plain beautiful. Your voice just takes this to heaven. 

A collation of some of my more folk-leaning musical adventures, with the occasional folky collaboration thrown in for good measure :)

Folk - Old & Less So...

This is a Breton song, a tune that never got anything done with it. A Corncrow outtake,.
 Until yesterday it existed as a guide guitar track that I recorded, and some bouzouki played by my erstwhile bandmate.
I stuck some recorder and drums on it.  

Enjoy - with or without cider!

Cider Song (Breton trad arr Kim Guy)

A cover version of the Waterson's song 'The Scarecrow' from their album 'Bright Phoebus'.

The Scarecrow (L&M Waterson)

The heavy frost in the air is so redolent of snow, and only enhances the need to snuggle.  Here is my take on an old trad tune I heard when watching a marvellous adaption of a book from a favourite author of mine - Thomas Hardy,
Enjoy! :)

“The clock of life is wound but once,
And no man has the power
To tell just when the hands will stop
At late or early hour.”

The Clock Of Life - Improvised Piano Piece

To have the wonderful experience of living close to one or more small children, following them, playing, fooling around, talking and discussing with them, sharing their joys and sorrows, and having the privilege of being a part of their upbringing, is one of the wonders, you get to experience as a parent. But also as a grandparent, if you take advantage of that opportunity.

So, as an old man, being able to sit down, with a grandchild in my arms, feeling its heartbeat with my hand, fills my heart with such infinite gratitude that they exist. It is with unconditional love that I share the moments I get with them, and feel immense pride in all my children and grandchildren. I love them all, and my wonderful wife unconditionally and without limits. ;)

And I am convinced that true Love can overcome most things. So let's spread love, in our amazing universe. ;)

Many thanks my dear David, for your great friendship, for your wonderful guitar playing, and for all the positive energy you give in our conversations and collaborations. ;)

If I Needed You (Townes Van Zandt)

From my "Wednesday's Child" album, here's a bare-bones recording of a song from the wonderful Mr Richard Thompson, 

Dimming Of The Day (Richard Thompson)

I am a singer and multi-instrumentalist. My initial incarnation was as a           wyrd/psych-folk singer-musician, and saw my debut solo album, Wednesday’s Child, released in  2010. Subsequent (unreleased) solo albums include self-penned material alongside an eclectic mix of covers from various genres. 

I have gigged and/or recorded with Elowen, The Rowan Amber Mill (album releases include 'Midsummers', 'Heartwood' and 'Folk Devils and Moral Panics' ) Corncrow (album releases include 'Sweet Nightingale' and 'So Brightly Shining') The Atwood Machine, Mats Bergman's 'Burnt More Bridges Than Cross The River Thames' vinyl release, Dead Melodies 'Murken Hollow' and featured on various collaborations; releases including Dark Britannica's We Bring You A King With A Head Of Gold and Rif Mountain's Echoes From The Mountain, all widely available .

The lockdown gave me ample opportunity for music to be made at Wyrd House Studio. Back to my folky roots, and after a 10 year hiatus, The Rowan Amber Mill released a mini-album 'Among the Gorse To Settle Scores', ahead of the full-length 'Golden Strings To Tether The Sun'. Please head over to https://rowanambermill.bandcamp.com/ where you will find this nestling in all the other RAM goodness.
