John Fahey

The Guitar Of John Fahey Vol. 1

John Fahey is truly an original and distinctive voice in the musical world, revered by artists and performers the world over for his unusual compositions and cross-pollination of genres. His recording career has drawn influence from Country Blues, Old-Time music, Indian ragas, the European classical tradition and Gregorian tonalities. He formed a loosely defined 'school' of American Primitive guitarists that included such diverse characters as Leo Kottke and Robbie Basho.

In this not-to-be-missed set of tutorials, Fahey himself teaches the techniques and arrangements for fifteen of his best-known instrumentals using regular, open G and open D tunings. A 48-page tablature booklet is included.
