Summary: a glimpse of a true master
Review: This little-known video of the great guitarist John Fahey is nothing less than a revelation. Fahey, looking somewhat weird in dark glasses and santa-type beard, works his way through blues, rags, country tunes, pop songs and free improvisational pieces, and he manages to tie it all together due to unfaltering integrity and unexpected stage presence. Throughout the video, there are also snippets of an interview, in which Fahey discusses his early influences and certain stylistic matters concerning his music. To guitarists, this video is a trasure; to the rest of us, it's a rare glimpse into the musical world of a true American original,who hopefully will continue to influence future musicians in spite of his untimely death earlier this year. Six strings never sounded this good. At least, not very often.
