Limited vinyl LP pressin g of this 1971 album from the British singer, songwriter and guitarist. Bless the Weather marks his return as a solo artist having released two albums with his wife Beverley Martyn.

The album is predominantly acoustic, although it does feature Martyn's first real 'echoplex' track in "Glistening Glyndebourne".
