Beverly Martyn (b. Beverly Kutner) was a highly respected British folksinger when she met and fell in love with British singer/songwriter <a href="spotify:artist:3JulrApLVT81sb2HkfwMks">John Martyn</a>. A longtime friend of <a href="spotify:artist:2CvCyf1gEVhI0mX6aFXmVI">Paul Simon</a>, she had suggested the allusion to <a href="spotify:artist:6vLlQYujOujIrm7zAKzEdG">Donovan</a> in the <a href="spotify:artist:70cRZdQywnSFp9pnc2WTCE">Simon and Garfunkel</a> tune "Fakin' It." During a mid-'90s interview, Simon recalled, "She wasn't married to <a href="spotify:artist:3JulrApLVT81sb2HkfwMks">John Martyn</a> at that time, but I knew her from way back in English scufflin' days and we brought her over to sing at the Monterey Pop Festival."

<a href="spotify:artist:6rXycobs8wkWicUGLtmB0n">Beverly</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3JulrApLVT81sb2HkfwMks">John Martyn</a> were married in 1969. The following year, they recorded two memorable duo albums: Stormbringer, recorded in Woodstock, NY, with American musicians, including <a href="spotify:artist:1PWHsS9haruM3AEebZuGs9">Levon Helm</a> of <a href="spotify:artist:4vpDg7Y7fU982Ds30zawDA">the Band</a> and Paul Harris on keyboards; and The Road to Ruin. Their collaboration, however, was short-lived. Shortly after the birth of her second child, in 1971, the marriage fell apart. Although she's attempted to regain her status as a traditional singer, Beverly Martyn has been unable to match her early success. ~ Craig Harris, Rovi
