John Fahey

America

Original US LP released in 1971 on Takoma Records. Cat: C1030. This Lp has a gatefold cover.    

Over the next several months we have the pleasure of listing a spectacular vinyl collection of over 6000 LP's. This collection consisting of mostly Jazz but also Blues, Folk ,Rock, Soundtracks and Classical was kept in amazing condition. Most of the records were played once, transferred to tape for listening and then stored away in cliplock sealed bags in specially made cupboards. The overall condition of this collection is sublime to say the least and whatever items I list as Near Mint you can be assured that it was probaly only ever played once!! Over the last few weeks you may have noticed some of the lovely jazz & rock titles I have listed, these are just the tip of the iceberg here. I hope you enjoy seeing these listings as much as I have in offering them. 

In some respects this was Fahey at his most ambitious; two of the four songs ("Mark 1:15" and "Voice of the Turtle") clock in at around the 15-minute mark, and one of the others is entitled "The Waltz That Carried Us Away and Then a Mosquito Came and Ate Up My Sweetheart." It's actually typical of his work of the period, however: inventive acoustic guitar instrumentals that draw from folk and blues, with a sedate presentation that has a relaxing effect.

Tracks: The voice of the turtle/ The waltz that carried us away and then a mosquito came and ate my sweetheart/ Mark/ Knoxville blues.

There are no signs of spindle marks on labels. Record has a few tiny pieces of paper flecks embedded on side two of record. These produce no noticeable affect on playing. Record has some light scuff marks and is in Excellent condition. Thick gatefold cover has some tiny surface tears along front right edge and is in VG++ condition.

Payment is accepted by Paypal. Within Australia we also accept Direct deposit transfer and Australia Post Money Orders.
