A masterful evocation of the desert landscapes of the American southwest, Tenderfoot is an allegory of a man suffering massive regret for his loss of true love through a lifetime of his own uncaring actions. Written in the early 1970s, this is one of Clive James' greatest and most poignant lyrics. Here Pete Atkin gives the song a rare outing in May 2012 at the Château of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, near Paris, France.
