     I am a BIG John Martyn fan and have been for many years! He has a
    stunning version of "Over The Rainbow" for anyone that loves that old gem
    but I like all his albums that I have heard although Solid Air has the
    jazzier feel to it! He did do some things with Phil Collins producing that
    were a little overblown buthis early stuff when he was developing his
    style are excellent try "Bless The Weather: for example!
