superb, otherwise unissued pair of live sets from sandy bull; whose re-discovery a few years back by the free-folk elite no doubt influenced their intake of chemicals, leading to their subsequent world-domination in ür-underground(s)...

but seriously; if you’ve never heard/of mr. bull; his well-rounded sound-world, taking in brazilian & middle/eastern themes hedged with a deep, deep knowledge of the infinite, well... he’s one of my favorite string-benders at least, whether that be the strings of an acoustic, an electric, or an egyptian oud.
water press release...
sandy bull is known for some of the first extended instrumental compositions for guitar that incorporated elements of folk, jazz, and indian and arabic-influenced dronish modes.

this album, taken from two nights of performances in february 1969 recorded at san francisco's legendary matrix, finds bull experimenting with guitar electronics, as well as working out on the acoustic instruments that were the mainstay of his vanguard records fantasias and inventions albums. deluxe packaging features rare photos and detailed liner notes.

imaginational anthem

imaginational anthem brings together pioneering acoustic guitar heroes of the 60's and 70's alongside a new generation of amazing players. nearly 70 minutes of archival, live, and newly recorded studio tracks - some by artists who haven't released any music in decades. plus a deluxe booklet with producer's notes and never-before-seen photographs.

imaginational anthem contains 16 tracks, 13 of which are previously unreleased and 9 which were specifically recorded for this album.

...

imaginational anthem volume two

here are some highlights among the twelve tracks comprising imaginational anthem volume 2 — all previously unreleased on cd in the us:

  • kowaka d'amour” by robbie basho (1940-1986), the first live recording ever issued by this legendary artist
  • devil's brew” by fred gerlach, a 1975 home recording by this masterful 12-string guitarist— cited as an influence by jimmy page
  • new performances recorded expressly for ia2 by such emerging major talents as berkeley’s sean smith and (from the uk) james blackshaw and sharron kraus.
  • new recordings of compositions by original takoma recording artists peter lang (“future shot at the rainbow”) and billy faier (“new world coming”).
...

imaginational anthem volume three

imaginational anthem vol. 3 is the third in a series of compilations devoted to acoustic guitar mavericks past and present. 

as with volumes 1 & 2, the new album features extraordinary young talents such as cian nugent (ireland), ben reynolds (uk), and shawn david mcmillen (austin, tx) alongside unsung heroes from decades past, such as banjo master george stavis, who recorded an album for vanguard in the 60’s; richard crandell, whose rare private press works will hopefully now be brought to light; and mark fosson, whose lost 1977 takoma album was recently issued.
