SO "Live in Tasmania" was pretty cool, any suggestions for my next acquisition?

And is he using thumb and fingerpicks? He can't be playing barefingered, no way

    You should get "Yellow Princess" - great Fahey record from 1968. I'd also recommend "John Fahey and Friends - Friends of Fahey Tribute" from www.slackertone.com. It has a previously unreleased track from Fahey's last acoustic recording session and other great guitar players like: Woody Mann, John Renbourn, Tihn, Terry Robb, Mark Lemhouse and John Doan paying tribute to the great late Mr. John Fahey. - If you're interested in slightly other techiques as well.

    By the way, have you seen the video on YouTube.com of John from 1969, I think it is. Great footage of him playing on some strange TV show.

      Yeah the Dead Peacock blues or whatever?

      What a weirdo.

      Will check out the recordings you suggest, thanks for the tip!
