Description
way out of print double lp on Table of the Elements. Cover and vinyl are mint! never played! includes original plastic sleeve with press info! Limited Edition and looong sold out...On Georgia Stomps..., a live solo Chicago date from 1997, Fahey indulges in his frequent, and frequently rewarding, habit of obsessively digging into his themes, worrying short phrases until he's wrung every last bit of beauty from them. The pairing of the standard "House of the Rising Sun" and Artie Shaw's "Nightmare" is interrogated for 20 minutes before Fahey decides he's had enough. The artist performs several of his own compositions, including the lovely "Juana" from his Womblife disc, as well as other standards, ending with a reflective take on "Mood Indigo." Despite working out of essentially a blues or pop song sensibility, one can hear echoes of influences as diverse as Derek Bailey, Harry Partch, and Balinese gamelan. His deeply personal, introspective approach makes one feel as if one is overhearing an artist performing in the privacy of his home, for his own rollicking enjoyment. Unlike Womblife or City of Refuge, albums where Fahey utilized electronic effects and found sounds, this performance, with its heavy blues basis and rich textural fabric, provides a direct confrontation with one of the most purely musical and idiosyncratic guitarists around.
