When the artist remarks "Grace and Danger was very cathartic, and really hurt, I was really in love with that woman" you just know that this is not going to be a rib-tickling listen. Famously kept on the shelves for a whole year such was Island Records' concern for its content, 'Grace And Danger' is one John Martyn's most striking releases. Charting the demise of his marriage to Beverly Kutner, painfully self-knowing and -lacerating and startling after the jazzy world/folk of its predecessors, this nonetheless features strong material notably the title track, 'Johnny Too Bad' and the sublime 'Sweet Little Mystery' offsetting some of the more industrial angst beaming through the period production gloss in taut ensemble playing from Martyn on guitars, John Biblin on bass, and Phil Collins (also undergoing a divorce) on drums.
