(Cover has a promo stamp, light wear, and is bumped and bent at the bottom corners.)
As the notes say, "this album is a series of aural and spatial fantasies evoking the spirit of American patriotic music" – and the whole thing's recorded on electronic keyboards. Given that this one's on Takoma, you can guess the kind of hippy-dippy folksist influence it might have ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

John Fahey rewrites the sound of America – here in a wonderful set that stands as one of the real highlights from his Takoma Records years! Tracks are a mix of public domain material from America's past, mixed with plenty of Fahey originals – and all material receives both fantastic ... (Folk/Country) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Seminal sounds from the great John Fahey – an assemblage of excellent moments from his early Takoma albums – plus one previously-unreleased track! (Folk/Country) LP, Vinyl record album
A really cool set – one of the unusual 70s albums made by guitarist Rick Ruskin for Takoma! The style here is a bit different than the label's work by John Fahey and Robbie Basho – still acoustic on most tracks, but with some vocals from Ruskin from time to time – and additional ...

A set that marks a new label for Doug Sahm, and maybe a slight shift in sound too – one that uses roots modes that extend a bit more past more familiar Texas territory, but only to showcase the depth in Sahm's music that continued to make him a legend long after his too-early passing! Doug's ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Test pressing in a standard cover, with a small fray at the top right corner.)
Gruff and deep down beautiful Mississippi Blues from Bukka White – released on John Fahey's Takoma label at the end of the 60s and featuring rawly rollicking, shaky voice intensity and that heat producing bottleneck guitar! It's wonderful stuff, certainly a high water mark for the late 60s ... (Blues) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(1980 pressing. Cover has a small rip near the top left corner, but looks great overall.)
Like a number of other reggae soundtracks, this collection of burning late 70s UK reggae transcends its use in the film, and makes a hard hitting set on its own. 10 numbers in all, including Yabby You "Deliver Me From My Enemies" and "Free Africa", Michael Prophet "Turn Me ...
