righteous. that fahey/sandy bull gig would’ve been legendary.
-
yeah…but could it top the gig w/ ragtime ralph at the soft rock cafe?
-
anything at a place called “soft rock cafe” is pretty much a given to be epic.
-
I interviewed Chris Darrow (Kaleidoscope, Leonard Cohen) this weekend in LA. He was the first guitar player OTHER than John to play on a Fahey record.
He said John would warm up by playing two notes over & over & over for an hour or so, then he would break into the song, daring the other musicians to keep up with him. Darrow said that John had his own “speedball” of pills, coffee and white wine. Fahey fuel!
