ILX Gonna Shine in My Backdoor Someday (new post-Fahey folk for ppl posting in Takoma/Tompkins Square threads Pt II)

I really want to go, financially it might not be possible but if I can make it I would love to meet yall irl

i had a change of heart, see you all there :)

Why is the Itasca recording so hissy after the first two tracks?

Oh, it's just tracks 3 and 4 that sound like that.

Some really nice stuff there.

Nice Global, seems like I need to get on top of getting a ticket. Will be in touch as that event gets closer.

Wife and I are debating it! April might be a busy month for us as we're moving potentially around then.

This is what you guys are talking about?: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-thousand-incarnations-of-the-rose-a-festival-of-american-primitive-guitar-tickets-42515987463

yep, really hope my wife finds a job

Oh man, I just realized the exhaustive compilation Glenn told me he has been putting together has the same name as this festival The Thousand Incarnations of the Rose

oh wow

I knew it sounded familiar

See you there global! Getting my tix tomorrow I think, tbh it's prob not the most responsible thing in my life right now to purchase this, but dude—I'm looking forward to it. Will figure out sleeping situation later. Hope to see anyone there.

yep same deal, i just had to accept that i don't care about being responsible and also want to meet all you weirdos so ya

In which Byron Coley writes about Robbie Basho and talks with John Fahey about him. Also there is a sale.

Oh what the fuck, sorry, here tis: https://www.forcedexposure.com/Features/LatestFeature.html

And if you are a time traveler who gets here when that is no longer LatestFeature, hope the search box still works.

excellent read. fahey was such a bullshitter

basho always does sound like the biggest douche though

both weird jerks! good guitarists though.

lmao

FAHEY: No. It was just spoken and it was all fucked up. It was like, “American Indians are the same as Hindus,” and all that stuff. It wasn't even funny, it was so pitiful.

COLEY: He was the warrior of a lost tribe.

FAHEY: But he was the only one from the tribe. That was his trouble.

fahey low key one of the funniest musicians i can think of honestly

Considered going to this just to see the Basho doc. Bet it will be a fun time, but three days of DADGAD sounds like overkill to me

Any word on the release date for the Glenn Jones comp?

oh don't worry there will be plenty of open c :)

next thursday in greenfield is Xylouris White/ Scratch Ticket show. i'll be deejaying freedom music between sets. Scratch Ticket is Willie Lane's electric power trio with John & Rob of Sunburned. they are awesome. seems like people here would dig Xylouris White.

I saw them (XW) a while back and they were great

xylouris white put on one of the best gigs I've seen in the past decade or so.
does scratch ticket have any recordings? sounds like a good combo.

i think they will probably record? at some point.

scratch ticket and new parents are the guitar bands to beat around here. new parents played last night and they were friggin' awesome. just amazing 2 guitar action. 60s/70s vibe. THEY have a new album out on Feeding Tube that i picked up last night. that show also had lou barlow solo playing his tiny guitar. lou plays that tiny guitar very well. or was it a uke? (new parents is adam from sore eros new band. if you are familiar with sore eros.)

man does everyone in your town have a deal with feeding tube?

XW are so good live

title track from marisa anderson's upcoming record on thrill jockey:

nice cover photo!

wow fleetwood mac cover connections

haha yeah ...
oh and hey, there's a pretty killer new cian nugent jam up over here: https://ciannugent.bandcamp.com/track/inherited-traits-2

Into checking both of these out. Marisa is just so damn good, glad there is a new one on the way.

Yeah, she's got a bunch of albums on bandcamp, and that reissued, expanded Traditional and Public Domain Songs (with couple tracks available only on there), the one some us were loving last fall, is still so hot.

"some us"? jeez I've read a couple news features published (sic) lately, but still no excuse.

Marisa is definitely a good reason to go to the "Thousand Incarnations of the Rose" festival. She is a joy live, and I haven't seen her in ages. Need to get a copy of "Traditional and Public Domain Songs" at some point, just a great album. Really interested to see what direction the new one goes in.

I said FUCK LYFE and I'm going...bought my ticket... :)

<3

Got an email from Glenn!

The comp with the same name as the fest is slated to come out next month! This includes a 6500 word essay about American Primitive.

Also he's got a new album coming out late August!

nice

i'm more excited now that i pulled the trigger

might be overkill but at the same time there will never be a more impressive lineup assembled in one place, barring the ability to raise the dead

listening to Into the Light by Marisa Anderson right now, she really is so amazing...

doing guitar stuff that approaches "bluesy" without being corny as shit is like, really really difficult and she does it amazingly

That's a good thread idea

"Examples of" style

yeah it would be but i don't know if i could articulate other examples

flight: booked

as it gets closer we should have a roll call and figure out how we could have a meetup at 1000 roses :)

there's a bluesy dbh tune that comes to mind but yeah off the top of my head it's tough to think of more

We (wife and I) just got our tickets

yay!

omg, yeah, xylouris white were off the hook. yikes. so great. they are going all over the states and if you have never seen them....
