Road To Ruin\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA complex and sometimes belligerent character in real life, on record, John Martyn was the epitome of the folk-dreamer, embodying the spirit of the bourgeoning London acoustic scene of the late 60s. Well-known and respected for his 70s albums Solid Air and One World, this is where it began.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe second and final John and Beverley album, The Road To Ruin came out in late 1970; it is a mature, fully realised work, and a glimpse of what would have happened had Island not encouraged John to go back to being a solo artist. Opener Primrose Hill was later sampled by Fat Boy Slim, and the John-led Parcels offers a template for what would become his signature style as the decade progressed. It is one of those rare albums that creates its own atmosphere, late night intensity, middle age soul.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis re-issue faithfully replicates the original 1970 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59522853535825,"sku":"UMCLP054","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/0190\/4465\/files\/b5e70b02-db7d-4bae-840f-bf4a489e04d9.png?v=1778920939","url":"https:\/\/classicalbums.shop\/products\/john-beverley-martyn-the-road-to-ruin-vinyl-lp-due-out-28-07-23","provider":"Classic albums ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
