He’s one of the most respected songwriters of his time, producing a steady stream of stunning albums throughout his career. Mary Chapin Carpenter named him as one of her favourite songwriters. Melody Maker described Any Trouble, as the most exciting new rock 'n' roll group since The Pretenders and according to Guitar Player, he is one of the 1000 great guitarists. Artists who have recorded his songs include Fairport Convention, Claire Martin, Norma Waterson and Nanci Griffith, who recorded I Love This Town on her number one chart topping album.
