Description
Iain Matthews, English musician and songwriter, was singer and guitarist with Fairport Convention, before forming his own band Matthews Southern Comfort, which had a UK number one in 1970 with a cover of Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock" (it spent three weeks at number one and 23 weeks in the Top 100).
Born in Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire/England Iain Matthew McDonald (stage name Ian Matthews, later from 1989 again in the original spelling Iain) was a founding member of British folk rock institution Fairport Convention with Richard Thompson and Ashley Hutchings. Due to musical differences he left the band during the recording of the album “Unhalfbricking� and after a short detour in Matthews Southern Comfort he started his impressive solo career which still left enough space for him to front the bands Plainsong, Hi-Fi (feat. David Surkamp, Pavlov’s Dog), and lately Matthews Southern Comfort again.
The present Rockpalast DVD shows Iain Matthews and his band at a concert in the Hamburger Markthalle in Germany from December 12, 1983 feat. David Wintor (If, Stealers Wheel) on bass, Bruce Hazen (Hi-Fi, Life 9) on guitar and former Argent and Kinks drummer Bob Henrit.
