Since 1987, he has also recorded four solo albums. He converted to Islam in 1990.〔() "In 1999 Danny was interviewed for the BBC TV series Faces of Islam in which he discussed becoming a Muslim and his realisation of the fact that whilst he had only converted to Islam in 1990, the Muslim faith had always been within him."〕
==Biography and career==

Thompson was born in Teignmouth, Devon. His father, a miner, joined the Royal Navy at the start of World War II and was lost in action whilst crewing submarines. When Thompson was aged 6, the family moved to London and he was brought up in the working-class area of Battersea. At school he excelled at football and played as a junior for Chelsea, the team he has supported ever since. Whilst at school he learnt guitar, mandolin, trumpet and trombone before settling on the upright bass as his instrument of choice.
While he has his own album releases Thompson is predominantly a session musician contributing to other artists, such as with Richard Thompson e.g. ''Mirror Blue'', ''The Old Kit Bag'', and the concert DVD release ''Richard Thompson Live in Austin Texas'', from the ''Austin City Limits'' televised concerts.
Danny Thompson lived in Clopton, Suffolk during the late 1970s and early 80s with his wife Daphne and son Dan (Danny Junior who went on to be the drummer with Hawkwind (1985–88)) Early in the 1980s he moved back to London. He received a Lifetime achievement award in the 2007 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
In the early part of the 1980s he worked closely with documentary film-maker, Roy Deverell and composed music for two of his award-winning films, ''Echo of the Wild'' and ''A Passion to Protect''. The films are about John Aspinall's pioneering work with endangered mammals.
