The only thing I can be sad about regarding BBML is that they are wholly unique and singularly beautiful (much like the band Feathers who they share a harpist with). There can never be more than what we have of this magical moment in time, and that is alright. I feel that, if at some time in the mid-2000s our reality was reset or replaced by some maleficent demiurge, these folks made music to combat or, perhaps, always exist on the event horizon of a precipice over the dark abyss as a golden beacon to beckon us towards the beauty of the original emotional option: pure, unfettered bliss.

Cheers from a huge Basho fan down here in Eugene. This is an amazing recording- and from a very rare era of Basho to be documented live. I noticed in the Fahey companion video someone inquired about a FLAC version- could I make that request for this recording? Would be great to crank this alongside my old Basho vinyl. Thanks for posting!

I went to D.C for a Fahey concert circa 1972, but he didn't show up. About 1994 I saw him and a small entourage in a 7-11 parking lot by King's Dominion amusement park near Richmond, VA. We parked next to their car. But I didn't recognize him at the time. Dang.

Thank you sincerely for uploading this. It’s mesmerising and beautiful. It’s just what I need. These performances remind me of an Australian trio called , ‘The Necks’ ? Upright bass, piano, drums. Instrumental long-form tracks. Mostly improvised I think. Started in Australia in the late 80’s early 90’s. Chris Abraham’s piano has a similar quality to this brilliant guitar playing.

Ecstatic minimalism. LaMonte Young, Lubomyr Melnyck and Charlemagne Palestine are the piano players who come to my mind. Basho also has his incredible voice which adds a whole other dimension. A true genius.

Neither on of us was nearly old enough to have attended the Reed concert, but I have great memories, Steve, of sitting in your room in the ODB and copying your version of this reel-to-reel, which you found in the attic of the Reed library in, what, 1984? I still have my cassette version, in fact, which bears some sort of magic-marker "mystical" drawing that I thought would be worthy of Fahey's startling achievement. It helps that we spent so much time back then in the SU, where this concert had taken place--we knew well enough of the atmosphere!

So I was totally taken with Fahey's music and a student at Reed. I saw him twice on campus in those late 60's years, and can't recall which set was which. Anyhow, during his break I followed him into the bathroom and asked him about one of his compositions. He told me he was miserable because he was "on the wagon" and also constipated. He handed me out the chords to the song in question, written on toilet paper.

@urideemer43332 жыл бұрын
The fact that Days Have Gone by Vol 6 is my most played Fahey record would seem to indicate that it is "my "favorite" as well. Voice of the Turtle is right on up there as well. I happened upon Fahey on the Audio Karma Forum "what are you listening to now" thread where someone had posted Voice of the Turtle. I had never heard of Fahey. Then quite by chance in the local Goodwill store Some 8-10 years ago) I saw it there along with America, Sign of the Red Cross and City of Refuge. I later picked up the Vinyl of Turtle and others that I happened upon along the way including The Transcendental Waterfall which is where Days Have Gone By Vol. 6 is in my collection. I have been having a rather "bad karma" August of 2022. Taxman hit me up for four years of reconfigured back property taxes, a guitar I bought from a large online retailer is now lost in the ether as I sent it back to be fixed......then happened upon some Fahey interviews and shows and he helped bring me right back down to a happier place. Thanks John and the Poor Farm Broadcasters.

the first track is not St. Louis Blues, but something that Fahey later called "Lights Out". He recorded it again with Terry Robb on the 1997 "Let Go" album. On this live performance he's playing it in a D minor tuning, i.e., DGDGA#D. Great stuff, as usual from Fahey.
