Davey Graham the British folk guitarist and songwriter has died of cancer aged 68.
Graham was highly influential but also disappeared through personal problems- The Times obituary makes a good comparison with Peter Green the guitarist of the original (and then excellent) Fleetwood Mac. His most famous composition was Angi, covered by Simon and Garfunkel.
And a very young Graham can be seen in Ken's early documentary Guitar Crazy playing Cry Me a River, the best musical piece in Ken's film.
If you want to hear more of Graham the best CD is All That Moody.
