Saw him in concert here in Italy circa 1979 in Bologna, my University town....Really good... He'd play alone on stage with just his guitar and pre-recorded bases This song has a very special atmosphere ( for me at least...) RIP John...Thank you Among other things....He was friends with Nick Drake...... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Martyn

Chet Baker (RIP) - trumpet Anti-war song ...Namely UK-Argentina (Falklands / Malvinas islands possession 1982)... That was also the then Argentine military fascist regime's attempt to divert int'l attention from the massacre of people they were systematically kidnapping, torturing and killing ( about 50,000) including pregnant women whose children then were adopted by military families...Many opposers being dropped from helicopters into the Atlantic ocean.... In 1983 the Country returned to Democracy with a freely elected President ( Raul Alfonsin)...At last https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falklands_War Argentina regime https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirty_War
