| JOHN
FAHEY | |
Creates
his own individual music. As someone said. " If John
Cage ever composed country music, this is what it would sound
like".
John Fahey continues his guitar excursions into the Unknown.
His first studio album, since "Womblife" and a follow
up to his tour of the UK and Ireland in 1999.
Forty years after greeting the world as one of the first "garage"
acts with a 100-copy first pressing of the legendary LP Blind
Joe Death, and thirty years after finding an involuntary cache
amongst the Haight Ashbury smart set, at 61 the celebrated
guitarist, author, theologian and musicologist JOHN FAHEY
is back in the garage full-circle and unbroken.
"HITOMI" is the first album since 1964 that John
has produced and recorded entirely unfettered from "correction"
by the commercial interest. It is also the first recorded
outing for the John Fahey Trio, with Tim Knight and Rob Scrivener
on "The History of Tokyo Rail Traction"
