Such a good melodie, it doesnt sound complicated but sounds soooo good.

Haunting, yes, also life changing, melancholy, lonely, music that could herald the end of the world.

Yes his music is haunting. I think he was haunted too by the sounds and lives of people like Charlie Patton and John Hurt. I learned to play guitar copying him in the 70s. I saw him play in Greenwhich Village once. He had a bag full of 7-ups (It was the middle of a summer heat wave). I tried to buy one from him and he refused the money and gave me one. There was no booze in the bag - just soda. His performance was inspiring. I still play his stuff sometimes. He started a new guitar trend.

Ladies & Gentlemen...the incredible John Fahey. I swear he can talk to his fingers and those fingers can talk to those strings. Fahey's music will forever haunt me and i don't think i am alone in that feeling, it just has that effect.

Pretty cool. Do you have anything else on Laura Weber? I learned guitar in the late sixties watching Laura's guitar lessons at one time. This really bring back memories.
