Episode 3
Compilation of performances from 1970s singer-songwriters, including Donovan, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Carole King, James Taylor, Jimmy Webb, Rod Stewart, Lee Hazlewood and John Martyn.
The celebration of the singing-songwriting troubadours of the 1960s and 70s continues with a further trawl through the 麻豆官网首页入口 archives for timeless and classic performances.
Starting proceedings is Scots-born Sunshine Superman, Donovan, with a rare performance from Julie Felix's show in 1968. Buffy Sainte-Marie performs Cripple Creek, and buddies Carole King and James Taylor perform classic Carole King songs.
Songwriting genius Jimmy Webb performs a gem in Didn't We, while a beautiful and sensuous Rod Stewart gives an intense performance of his song about his friend in The Killing of Georgie, from a Boxing Day edition of Top of the Pops in 1976. And from 1977 the inimitable and much-loved John Martyn, with help from Danny Thompson, rounds things off with a classic performance of Couldn't Love You More.
