CD

✈
A split album of genius from the legendary John Fahey – two different sides, in two different styles – both of them great! The first half of the record features beautiful duets with guitarist Woodrow Mann – a deft player who weaves wonderful acoustic sounds around Fahey's own lines – well-matched with the star of the set, but never over-eager to get in his way – with a complimentary style that may well make these duets some of the best that Fahey ever recorded. Side two features some solo numbers from John, and some that hit an older style of jazz in spirit – an extension of the early 20th Century modes explored on some of his Reprise Recordings, but done in a more subtle way that's much more in the Takoma spirit. Additional jazz elements are used on a few tracks – billed to Fahey's "orchestra", but more a small group of trad players – although the album does close on a beautiful extended solo guitar piece. Titles include "Old Fashioned Love", "The Assassination Of Stephan Grossman", "Boodle Am Shake", "Dry Bones In The Valley", "In A Persian Market", and "Jaya Shiva Shankarah".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.


Used CD Grade

We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
