Cornelis Vreeswijk - actually Dutch but moved to Sweden as a kid. Big folk hero

They made a movie about him a few years ago - not entirely flattering but a real snapshot of a poor 60s/70s socialist, working class, hard-drinking, free-loving era that’s all but gone (certainly from the big cities)
I think my favourite of his ‘visor’ is probably this https://youtu.be/48eX6a8nsyg
But there’s literally hundreds & they’re all full of the pathos, romance, humour & innuendo you’d imagine from the description above
Definitely a strong parallel with Jake Thackray - not least because of his unique rich voice and folk guitar stylings
