This of course isn't a threat, I just have very powerful friends and would end your life without feeling a thing

His tape stuff is sort of pretentious, but the bulk of his stuff is incredibly good.

>inb4 naming an album after a T.S. Eliot poem is pretentious

>>69809976
If you think that's his best album you're a hopeless scaruffi drone

I liked his early stuff but after 1965ish I lost interest in a lot of his stuff, he didn't do experimentation very well and others took up the American Primitivism torch and did it better

I'd much rather listen to Falconer's Arm than so much of that John Fahey stuff that gets overly praised like America or Fare Forward Voyagers

>>69809931
This is b8 guys, nobody's this retarded

>>69810285
His best album is probably Red Cross

>>69810452

Live in Tasmania is also very underrated

He's like a post-modern archive for roots american music. It's no surprise that he was a very knowledgable guy when it came to folk musics (he was a record collector and studied the subject at college), but there was something truly magical about the way he adapted the spirit and feel of folk for his own free-flowing, improvisational aesthetic. He was one of the first people to turn the steel-stringed guitar into a solo concert instrument, and his sense of dissonance is like nothing I've ever heard.

it definitely has some of his best renditions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-6IQui7Lp8

>>69811037
It has the most intense rendition of Red Pony that I know of, and his banter with the audience is fun too.

>>69811083
yeah fahey had the best sense of humor of any musician I know of
especially some of the liner notes

>>69809931
Wtf don't kill me.

>>69811413
Sorry man, i misfired there
