{"product_id":"john-martyn-tumbler-180gm-vinyl","title":"John Martyn- Tumbler - 180gm Vinyl","description":"\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. Produced by fellow London scenester Al Stewart, The Tumbler was a huge step forward, presenting Martyn as the questing soul he would become; yet, for the abstraction of The Gardeners, there was the simple folk ditty of Fishin' Blues. With the exemplary flute playing of Harold McNair, Fly On Home is clear in it's influence on Martyn's peer, Nick Drake. Knuckeldy Crunch and Slippledee- Slee Song demonstrates what would have happened if Syd Barrett had gone folk. The Tumbler can be viewed also as the beginning of Martyn's slurred vocal style and sweet sentiment that was to chime with thousands of his aficionados in the UK. This re-issue faithfully replicates the original 1968 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSing a Song of Summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The River\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Goin' Down to Memphis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Gardeners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A Day at the Sea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fishin' Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dusty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hello Train\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Winding Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fly on Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Knuckledy Crunch and Slippledee-Slee Song\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Seven Black Roses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e    ","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53091308765520,"sku":"8.0552E+11","price":6.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/2762\/2480\/files\/4226729-2991828.jpg?v=1780299722","url":"https:\/\/noirrecordsuk.com\/products\/john-martyn-tumbler-180gm-vinyl","provider":"Noir Records Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
