Daring Adventures

by Richard Thompson

Overview

Richard Thompson's second Polydor album contained some terrific and varied songs, from the raucous "A Bone Through Her Nose" to the mournful "Missie How You Let Me Down" and "Al Bowlly's In Heaven." Good as it was, it didn't establish Thompson as a big seller, and Polydor dropped him. ~ William Ruhlmann
