An all-new collection of Fahey's brooding originals and touching, ì existential treatments of hoary and beautiful old blues, country, ì and popular melodies. Over what would no doubt be howling ì protests from the man himself, Fahey was nonetheless something of ì a model and inspiration to a number of New Age guitarists, an ì ironic position to be occupied by one who once said that 'the ì only good thing about the sixties is that they were two decades ì closer to the twenties than the eighties were.' This album is a ì musical follow-up to his early, legendary album 'The ì Transfiguration of Blind Joe Death,' with its emphasis on John's ì country and blues influences.
