The Tallest Man On Earth
One man, one guitar.
This Swede has a magical stolen voice and I am glad I found this as it has been brightening the last few cloudy days.
Somewhere on the barren plain between Bob Dylan and Gordon Lightfoot this man has pitched his tent.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Aren't you writing pretty.
ReplyDeleteI always seem to fight a comparison whenever I can. I tried really hard to fight the Bob Dylan one, but I was listening to 'The Freewheelin' the other day and all I could think of was The Tallest Man on Earth.
What a live show he puts on, all on his lonesome.
This video is great, for the select tunes and all things else:

He is compared to Bob Dylan quite a lot but apparently in Sweden they call him "The Swedish Bob Marley" not exactly sure where that comes in though.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, it's great!
Thanks for pointing this guy out, cool stuff, I had vaguely heard of him before.
ReplyDeleteOff topic, but you asked a question about Kincaide way back, and I just came across it and answered it (and asked you a question).
