Notes

The sessions which produced this album took place in Cascade Recording Studios, Portland, Oregon, during November and December, 1984, and February, 1985. This studio was at one time a small church with a tiny pulpit and choir area at the north end.
Here, Mr. Fahey and Mr. Robb sat, facing the three omni-directional Telefunken 201 microphones which were especially modified by Eric von Helmholz. These microphones were hung so as to preserve the proper intimate atmosphere. Once the controls were adjusted to the delicate sound of the guitar(s), the microphones were never moved; optimum recording levels were set at the beginning of each session and never changed.These guitarists, Fahey and Robb, were the persons solely responsible for the musical flow of each performance.

This was the first John Fahey recording I ever heard and it impressed me enough to try to track down everything else he had recorded.As an acoustic guitarist he never fitted into any category other than his own and his willingness to experiment and meld styles was always impressive. For me the standout tracks on this disk would have to be Eric Clapton's Layla, Stravinsky's Lullaby And Finale From The Firebird and Moondog's Theme And Variations
