" I got to see John somewhere in the 90's .............
he's playing these beautiful sssllllloooooowwww pieces......."
I
was convinced in the 70s that Fahey was trying to prove he could play slower
than any other guitar player,I think he succeeded,he could play much slower
than anyone else I've ever heard. It's much more difficult to play an acoustic
guitar slowly than an electric guitar fast. Being musical in either case is
the big challege and Fahey's slow stuff could have this deeply in the moment
sort of beauty,almost Japanese.
