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

Oh cool Christoph is on it, nice dude

yeah, some familiar names, some new names. guess simon scott is the dude from slowdive. here's his track: https://soundcloud.com/tompkinssquare/trees-return-to-soil-by-simon-scott

Aycock is an underrated dude and fans of Langhorne, Tuma, et al should definitely be checkin' him

Looking forward to hearing this.

I think Aycock is my kind of guitarist, need to check more of that guys stuff. I have liked all that I have heard so far.

oh shit and kyle fosburgh too and DBH!! ogmor i love DBH so much thanks for posting about them originally

Yeah this installment looks pretty solid across the board. May get this one, don't own any of these.

dbh! looks like hayden p has done a v good job here plucking out some lesser known people

fans of banjo raga ala jean-paul pickens should check out this pedigo/fosburgh duet

we really need a new thread, I tried to open the whole thing just now (looking for mentions of Richard Dawson) and it crashed my computer

maybe encourage Youtube links on the next one?

(not a complaint, I love all these links)

ya i saw some folks mentioning that this thread is getting too big somewhere else. might be time!

Agreed, like six months ago or so a new one was gonna be started, lets make it happen. Fresh new thread for 2015. This one was started exactly two years and three days ago, I'd say it's time!

re: Richard Dawson, was gonna say that I hear a lot of Bill Orcutt's influence/style in his playing, anybody else? (sorry if this was noted previously)

I'm basically a tourist since I mostly just follow y'all's lead and I live in a region of the country where pretty much none of these musicians tour and I think my contributions are minimal but I think this is the single thread that has changed my music listening habits more than any other, it's endlessly valuable.

yeah this thread is so good. but yeah, a 2015 fresh start is probably a good idea....

working on one right now!

clever thread title is escaping me

Revolt of the ILX Brigade Vol 2: The Dance Of The ILXors (New Post-Fahey Folk For PPL that post in the Takoma & Tompkin's Square Threads)

maybe not, too long, wanted to keep original search terms plus Fahey-related "Vol. 2" pun

Hello faithful Delta Slider readers. As you may know the annual Fahey week is approaching. Unfortunately I’m pretty much out of material and buried at work, in other words: I got nuthin’.

So…here’s the opportunity you’ve been looking for! If you’ve always wanted to post an essay about Fahey and his music, your guitar tab of his song, that rare bootleg that hasn’t been posted yet, etc. Then now is the time to contact me about it! If you send me ready to publish material I can post it and you get the byline.

I would love to continue the tradition but frankly I’ve been short on time and resources. Let’s see what happens!! Fahey Week traditionally starts February 22nd.

Use the contact form below or email me at the addy listed in the "About" page.

Thanks all,
Scott

oh durr this is the old thread!

I'm basically blaming this thread for not alerting me to the gorgeous new Nathan Salsburg albums. Slowly letting volume 2 wash over me right now. It's sort of a homage to Leyland Kirby, using the ghosts of his vast collection of 78s as a bed for some very minimal guitar explorations. Flailing around for comparisons but in tone and emotional valence it has some similarities with Bruce Langhorne's Hired Hand.

Vinyl already sold out, natch.

Doh! Wrong thread! Only 5 years out...
