Richard Thompson mainly played acoustically on his album Front Parlor Ballads (2005). Successor Sweet Warrior is mainly electrically charged again. This applies not only to the music but also to the lyrics. Dark humor and genuine venom alternate in Thompson's lyrics. Especially the anti-war song Dad's Gonna Kill Me stands out. There is a lot of variety on Sweet Warrior. In Bad Monkey he plays with… rock and roll and Francesca's chorus has a somewhat reggae-like feel. The great thing about Thompson is that he manipulates these genres and fits them into his recognizable style. Sweet Warrior lasts almost seventy minutes and can hardly be caught at a weak moment. The man who enriched the Fairport Convention albums with his guitar playing at the end of the sixties is still not taking it easy. Fortunately. (PdK)more
