Richard Thompson is one of the UK's most outstanding songwriters, and an astonishing guitar player whose versatility allows him to adapt his style as each song requires.

After taking the bold step of recording his last album of new songs live, when it came to recording 'Electric', Thompson turned to Buddy Miller (Robert Plant, Solomon Burke, Emmylou Harris, Patty Griffin) to produce, recording at Miller's home studio in Nashville, TN.

The record was recorded as an electric trio with Thompson, drummer Michael Jerome and bassist Taras Prodaniuk, who also sings background vocals.

Guests on 'Electric' include the legendary Alison Krauss who joins Thompson on "The Snow Goose", while English singer-songwriter Siobhan Maher Kennedy (formerly with River City People) adds vocals on several tracks as well.

The bonus tracks that make up CD 2 comprise of 4 songs recorded at the same 'Electric' sessions, 2 songs from Richard's 'Cabaret of Songs' album and one from his epic '1000 Years of Popular Music'.
