Probably his most experimental effort, Inside Out saw John Martyn's work with the Echoplex become a linchpin in his overall sound.
His voice, which was transforming with each recording, also became more of an instrument, developing at times a rough, bluesy quality and slipping further and further into a jazz-like slur.
The album, which features Steve Winwood and Chris Wood of Traffic, as well as long time cohort Danny Thompson, balances smouldering tunes like "Ways to Cry" and "Fine Lines" with fiery, hypnotic excursions with the Echoplex, such as "Make No Mistake" and "Look In."
Some of his fan base may have felt alienated by the strange flights of Inside Out, but it's proven to be an important record in Martyn's oeuvre
SIDE 1: Fine Lines / Eibhli Ghail Chiuin ni Chearbhaill (traditional) / Ain't No Saint / Outside In / The Glory Of Love
SIDE 2: Look In / Beverley / Make No Mistake / Ways To Cry / To Much In Love With You
LABELS: NEAR MINT
Clean, unmarked labels - barely a spindle trace to be seen
VINYL Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces look like new. On very close inspection one hairline is visible on the first track which gives rise to a couple of brief ticks (see below)
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT/NEAR MINT
Outstanding audio quality - impressively produced and recorded with a warm, crystal clear, deep, rich sound and my play-check at volume found just the couple of clicks mentioned above and some ticks between Outside In / The Glory Of Love (no evidence for these on the vinyl surface) - nothing really - this copy is practically as-new
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Clean, sharp and fresh with no real edge or spine wear to speak of - all spine text is clear and bold - just one central shop crease on the spine
INNER SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Again, practically untouched - no edge wear or seam splits
