John liked the subtle misdirection of the backwards photo on the cover. A sly sense of humor.

For some of the posters, this is in open C. The tab is on Songsterr.

it's this kind of kernel of hope and wonder a glow warm shine

I've listened to this song more times than I can count, and the sheer beauty of it continues to astound me. There are some wonderful guitarists out there, but Fahey was some kind of special.

you can listen to all kind of music great music, from Mozart to Beethoven and spend your whole life walking the road of musical excellence but at the end of it, the kind of music that you end up with is the child like nursery ryhme melodies that you started of with.
Fahey knew this and that's why he is in my book the greatest composer that ever lived.

The sudden, subtle downshift in tempo at 2'50" is pure gold. Sigh.

Close your eyes and follow one finger.

Maybe they did this on purpose for artistic reasons. Instead of flaming, think outside of conventional logic.

the spiritual aspect to his music really makes it unique. i really haven't found that in anyone else to such a degree. i've listened to the other guys too, it's just not the same.

I only have 2 Fahey records: The Best of John Fahey 1959 - 1977 and another one that I did not like that much. Can't remember it's name, but it had his rendition of "Layla," which I thought was the best one on the disk. The rest weren't as good as the Best of.... album. The Best of album was a vinyl album.

Must be his left-handed twinbrother on the cover :-)

Ahh yes John Fahey and JoJo references. The real life easter eggs

hi glen
this is probably his best piece, i learned it in 1970. it's in open c tuning. It starts with a full straight bar of the 5th fret.and on and off fingering of the g string on the 7th fret while you still are barring the 5th. he uses a sort of reverse finger picking style for the opening lines Its an old blues technique i think called 'chocking style' ...and a little hard to make fluid....most of the rest of the piece is straight forward alternating bass with melody on top .

John Peel in the 60's introduced me to the music of John Fahey , Orinda Moraga was the first. Over decades I've tried to play his stuff, and this Requiem for John Hurt was and is the best.

this is untouchable, seriously
