Album

The Road to Ruin is a 1970 album released by husband and wife John and Beverley Martyn. It was the second and last album released as a duo. Island Records persuaded John Martyn to resume his solo career as they believed that the public was more interested in John as a solo artist rather than as part of a duo. The album marked the first collaboration on record between John and bassist Danny Thompson, who featured on many of Martyn's subsequent recordings. The Road To Ruin - John Martyn, Beverley Martyn.

Flowing with a subtle improvisation that incorporated a greater ethnic feeling, Road to Ruin makes for enjoyable listening indeed. Good singing and playing make this a great album to sit back and reflect upon. Only for completionists 0. Second and last album with wife Beverley ne Kutner, Road To Ruin is also counted as the fourth album in Martyn's solo career, even if it might overlook a tad Bev's contributions on these two albums. While the logical continuation of Stormbringer, it's clear the Road To Ruin is digressing from Martyn's normal progression trail, yet it sufficiently influenced him in his career that even though not essential to his discography, it's still a solid foundation stone to Martyn's adventures.
