PETER LANG - AMERICAN STOCK

by far his best album, this has some old songs and new songs re-recorded. Un-fucking-believable.

Derek 07.17.2008 06:25 PM

I have it B-)

Peter Lang rules

so does Fahey and any other minimal acoustic player.

MellySingsDoom 07.17.2008 06:26 PM

Am d-l'ing Peter Lang (hurry up, computer!). Anyone here a fan of Sir Richard Bishop?

Derek 07.17.2008 06:37 PM

Me me me!

Salvador Kali rules!

atsonicpark 07.17.2008 06:38 PM

yeah of course

I have every sun city girls album, every alvarius b album, every sir richard bishop..

I wish I had some of the charles gocher solo stuff...

But anyway, yeah, sir richard is awesome...

If you like lang, kotke, fahey, I'd definitely reccomend Basho...

Derek 07.17.2008 06:40 PM

Basho rules also!

I need more of this type of music.

MellySingsDoom 07.17.2008 06:41 PM

I've seen Sir Richard B solo 3 times now in London - amazing. I was also incredibly lucky to see the last Sun City Girls performance at ATP "Nightmare Before Xmas" in 2006 (I have pics which I'll upload within the next week, once I find the CD-R of them at Melly Towers).

Derek 07.17.2008 06:46 PM

I was supposed to see him with Earth but I never got in.

atsonicpark 07.17.2008 06:46 PM

yeah "american primitive guitar" or whatever is probably my favorite type of music definitely.

I saw the double-header in London in January - a great night all round.

Derek 07.17.2008 06:52 PM

I was looking forward to it but it was STRICTLY 18 PLUS AND OVER

MellySingsDoom 07.17.2008 06:56 PM

18 plus? Good God, what's wrong with the authorities these days? (The Converge gig last Sunday was 14+, for crying out loud).

fugazifan 07.17.2008 07:21 PM

sir richard bishop is probably now my favorite guitarist after fahey.
his stuff is mindblowingly beautiful. i think i like while my guitar violently... and improvika the best.
i think im still missing a bit iof his solo stuff.
i think its about time that we opened up a thread dedicated to SRC.
and maybe one to solo acoustic music.
i agree with mr cooley, american primitive guitar is probably my favorite kind of music at the moment

MellySingsDoom 07.17.2008 07:23 PM

^^^And our Jerusalem correspondent signs in. Shalom, senor :)

Why does WIRE write all the best articles...

hat and bread 08.03.2008 10:38 PM

Say, has anybody heard the John Fahey Trio album? I'm very curious what it sounds like.

 

atsonicpark 08.04.2008 12:14 AM

No, that and memphis swamp jam are the only fahey releases I haven't heard.

best and worst. but they were a perfect mag from 95-01. ive been ordering lots of back issues. theyve gone downhill but you can still get great articles in there. the last issue was great, a cover story with mark stewart that covered his entire career; the pop group, mafffia, and his solo stuff. the guy is brilliant.
