Robbie Basho / Leo Kottke - what to check out?

_slavo_ · 04.26.2007, 07:49 AM

Been listening to the wonderful music of John Fahey lately and since I heard that these two artist were making similar and equally powerful music, can you recommend me any of their albums worth checking out?

Thanks

everything i've heard by basho is excellent and i kind of prefer him to fahey, but i find his records tricky to locate, so i've only heard mp3s from soulseek

That's a great blog, Nefeli. I posted it on here a while ago. I should have put it on the 'mp3 blogs of interest' thread. Thanks for reminding me of it.

Robbie Basho is amazing. I like his stuff just a wee bit better than Fahey's... the vocals put it over the top for me.. "Wine Song" and "roses and gold" are too amazing for words.

I like the Basho stuff ive heard without his singing. I get the impression this is a common complaint. Theyve just reissued one of his later albums which sounds pretty nice.

I notice there are references to a blog Nefili posted, but has obviously been removed after her recent deletion. I dunno if this is the one she was referring to but it has some good stuff on it.
