Description
John Fahey US Reissue LP The Yellow Princess EX Vanguard VSD79293 Folk Blues
US Reissue Lp released in the early 1970’s on Vanguard Records. Cat: VSD79293.This particular John Fahey side is a personal favorite of many of his devout fans for several reasons. And although such a judgment is tough, if one were looking to own only one album by this unique guitarist, The Yellow Princess could be the one. The recording sound is among the best of his many releases; at the proper volume, the effect is as if one had taken up residency inside the sound hole of a giant acoustic guitar. The program of pieces is marvelously emotional and varied, with many moments of precisely stated harmonies moving at courageously slow tempos. The second piece on the first side, "View (East from the Top of the Riggs Road/B&O Trestle)," is surely one of his masterpieces, on a par with Charles Ives for musical Americana.
Tracks : The yellow princess/ View (east from the top of the riggs road/ B & O trestle)/ Lion/ March! for Martin Luther King/ The singing bridge of memphis, Tennessee/ Dance of the inhabitants of the invisible city of Bladensburg/ Charles A. Lee: In memorium/ Irish setter/ Commemorative transfiguration and communion at Magruder Park.
