John Fahey - Requia

Requia by John Fahey

Limited to 1000. Newly re-mastered from the original tapes, this classic 1967 album stands as one of the most innovative "folk" recordings of the period, with the master guitar player exploring musique concrete and tape collage techniques alongside his signature blues derivations.

Inspired by 'The Thief Of Bagdad', Mississippi John Hurt, a great-uncle Russell Blaine Cooper, Knott's Berry Farm Molly, Old Grandad 100% proof and a wilful approach to tuning, John Fahey produced these Requia and other compositions for guitar. Finishing with a hymn of course.
