Revolt of the ILX Brigade: New Post-Fahey Folk For PPL that post in the Takoma & Tompkin's Square Threads

yeah i mean, there's jack rose and glenn jones at that point who were doing the more straightforward stuff. who else was doing it at that point?

Oh I think there were plenty of folks. Harris Newman (on Strange Attractors even), Chasny was put in this category for a while, maybe Matt Valentine would have been one, plenty of others, but my guess is that Schmidt is just kind of slagging stuff out of hand, as he might if he is a real Fahey accolyte.

Now, who would have been getting "audiences applauding wildly" I wouldn't really know, cause as Tyler says that isn't my experience with most shows like this, but one can always hope.

I was gonna say, I'm hoping he wasn't talking about Jack Rose

Dylan Golden Aycock - really cool, meditative stuff

apparently he owns the label that reissued the Hired Hand Bruce Langhorne thing

Entertaining and long 1999 Washington City Paper feature on Bussard written by Eddie Dean who has penned books on country

Oh that looks cool, thanks Curmudgeon. Interested to read something from before the internet/fingerstyle guitar revival really kicked in!

I love that Hired Hand record! Found it in a bin, was intrigued by the cover. Ended up buying it and I'm really glad.

I really like the Aycock record. Very pretty and just gloomy enough.

The FRKWYS Gunn/Cooper album looks very nice.

I mentioned Dylan Aycock upthread a ways and mentioned his other projects as well, I defiantly recommend anyone to check out those too. Talk West is probably his most known moniker-project.

The next batch at Cabin Floor Esoterica includes a release of Dylan's and some really nice sounding guitar work of Matt Lajoie, the guy behind Herbcraft for any psych dudes in here.

Dylan Golden Aycock 'Sharp As A Razor/Soft As A Prayer', CFE 2014
Matt Lajoie 'Loser (Garcia)', CFE 2014
Rag Lore 'Misr Environs Excerpt', CFE 2014

Thanks Neal, gonna dig into those when I get a chance. Haven't fully resonated with Herbcraft yet, but seems like it would be my thing, gonna give that Lajoie a good listen.

Guys my John Fahey t shirt got a hole in it

Thanks for your support during this difficult time

Is it right above your heart?

Like those covers a lot, and not familiar with Emory at all. "good guitar ..."

those look intriguing

rare Peter Lang show this Saturday in Minneapolis at a local brewery for the NE Mpls Art-A-Whirl fest....global hipped me to it! very exciting!

you could go out with this shirt and the ladies will be crawling all over you

...google searching doesn't turn up much besides WFMU/ebay listings/and ILX posts

where to grab these albums?

the streams from wfmu sound really promising, would love to hear the rest of these

Hallock Hill who was mentioned upthread a bit did a live set for WFMU last week - on the Airborne Event show. He had Tim Noble from the Lowland Hundred along with him. Really nice set - if anything slightly more dissonant than his usual stuff: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/55533

I've been listening to the Mike Cooper reissues a fair bit (perfect timing for the Steve Gunn collab) - really excellent records. Largely folk rock forms but with some more 'out' elements. Great studio line up, too, featuring Alan Skidmore, Stefan Grossman and 'The Heron' among others.

yeah, those mike cooper reissues are something else! never heard of him before, but they are really interesting and enjoyable. gunn collab is pretty happening too, fairly loose, but I think that's the idea.

nice video preview of the forthcoming daniel bachman album:
http://vimeo.com/92197907

really digging the michael rother cover off the william tyler EP, obviously nails the kraut country thing.

yeah was just cranking that one. so good!

Yeah I like hearing W. Tyler in a band context, and a great sound for a band. Seems like the kraut-country thing is gaining traction, I have even seen the term pop up in a review or two I think. Fully into it.

I forgot to look for that William Tyler last time I was at the shop...

yesterday I was outside talking to this nice couple who lives across the street and they started talking out of nowhere abt seeing this great William Tyler show the night before and we all bonded immediately. Turns out they're acquaintances of his or something.

Lucky! All my neighbors probably only want to talk about reality television.

rare Peter Lang gig for free during the annual Art-A-Whirl fest in Northeast Mpls this weekend!

(thx to global for the heads up)

Gonna be good. I double booked myself that afternoon, but am gonna get to the first half at least. I'm hoping to get a couple videos up on Youtube too...

Good times! Pretty much a perfect day for this sort of thing.It was nice to see a pretty substantial and appreciative crowd in attendance. (would you agree, Magma?? a good amount of people there seemed to either be there to listen to him or were very much into it). Had to leave early, but got a couple good videos:

Snaker Ray Has Come and Gone (newer one off the 'Guitar' album), really liked this one:

Lost on Chainbridge Road:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7kceLHH-Rc

When Kings Come Home (i think he had some tuning problems going on during this one but it was still pretty gorgeous. I don't know if a taproom in the afternoon is a perfect setting for a song like this, a lot of chatty people wandering around.)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOGygrNjBa4

and any reason to post this video, because it's fucking awesome- Lang on Mpls public television in the 70s:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEjsWzynu3M

Yeah def I was happy that the crowd was pretty responsive. Peter played very well, overall was a perfect early afternoon vibe. Hope he plays out more, but definitely glad e had the chance, and for free

BTW I think it was after you left he revealed that his bottleneck slide was given to him by Duane Allman

That's great. That sounds like a story he'd share during a lesson, always these cameos by various 60s/70s folk. What else did he play? I remember he told me once that he liked to end sets with a medley of St. Charles' Shuffle and As I Lay Sleeping because they were 'fun and easy.' Would have loved to see that.

uhh i'm so bad w/names of intrumental songs...after that slide anecdote he did one off the first album that's slide intensive...i can hear it but i can't think of the name

uhhhhh maybe Wide Oval Ripoff? I hope he plays out more this summer now that there's a lot of festivals and stuff

yep! just looked it up and that's the one

listening to Guitar by Peter Lang today on Spotify...really great record, horrific 90s local bin CD art and all

yeah listened to that one last night.

i remember listening to dharma blues a lot back when i went on a itunes binge in 06/07. not sure how that measures up to his recent stuff but i remember digging it, and the plaintive cover too

these william tyler podcast things are very enjoyable - https://soundcloud.com/williamtylermusic/untitledmay-2
