Rest in Peace, Beverley Martin!

Farewell Beverley Martyn, English folk singer, best known as partner to songwriter John Martyn (1948-2009) pictured here in happier times: They made two acclaimed albums together in 1970 ("Stormbringer!" + "The Road to Ruin") and stayed married through one rough decade. Before that, she issued several solo singles in the 1960s; she reemerged in the late 1990s to tour with Loudon Wainwright III and recorded a couple albums in the 2000s. Gone at 79.
