Richard Thompson's Musical Journey
Thompson's legendary rock and roll roots trace back to the 1960s, when he co-founded the band Fairport Convention. Though his relationship with World Cafe started later, it remains important. The show had been on air less than a year when Thompson made his first of many appearances in 1992.
As World Cafe has grown, so has Thompson. He has transitioned from bandleader to solo artist, continually evolving his guitar style and musical approach.
