One of the premier British folk-rock vocalists of her generation, Linda Thompson was Linda Peters before she became musically and maritally involved with former Fairport Convention guitarist Richard Thompson, and the two formed a seminal duo that lasted as long as their marriage (until the early '80s). She released only one solo album before a voice disorder ended her recording career. A cure was eventually discovered, and she returned to recording in the early 2000s, by which time she was joined by son Teddy Thompson, who had become a successful singer/songwriter in his own right.
