A wonderful copy.
John Fahey (February 28, 1939 – February 22, 2001) was an American fingerstyle guitarist and composer who pioneered the steel-string acoustic guitar as a solo instrument. His style has been greatly influential and has been described as the foundation of American Primitivism, a term borrowed from painting and referring mainly to the self-taught nature of the music and its minimalist style. Fahey borrowed from the folk and blues traditions in American roots music, having compiled many forgotten early recordings in these genres. He would later incorporate classical, Portuguese, Brazilian, and Indian music into his œuvre.[1] Fahey wrote a largely apocryphal autobiography and was known for his coarseness, aloof demeanor, and dry humour. He spent many of his latter years in poverty and poor health, but also enjoyed a minor career resurgence with a turn towards the more explicitly avant-garde. He died in 2001 due to complications from heart surgery. In 2003, he was ranked 35th in the Rolling Stone "The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" list.[2]

Condition
If two grades appear, the first grade is the cover and the second is the record. If only one grade appears, it is for the vinyl only. A 2-lp album counts as two LP’s. I grade my records conservatively.
SS = still sealed
M- = near mint, or unplayed condition. Cover is nice and new looking with no ring wear.
EX = only slight signs of wear; very clean, only light surface marks which will not distract significantly from the sound. Cover also has only slight wear, and is still in nice collectible condition. In general, if not for a couple things, it would be near mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find highly acceptable.
VG+ = played often with moderate surface wear and some moderate noise - still plays well. Cover may have medium overall wear or some ring wear. Minor warps that do not affect play are OK.
VG = overall wear, but no skips of serious defects, more noisy sound during quiet passages. Cover is well worn, usually with considerable ring wear.
VG- = heavy wear on record and cover.
G or G+ = Poor or Rough condition.
Guarantee
All records are guaranteed to be in the condition stated or you may return it and receive a full refund, postage excluded. Record must be returned immediately. Insurance on domestic mailings is recommended. Insurance on foreign shipments is usually cost prohibitive, but you may inquire prior to your purchase for options.
