During his visit, Fahey succeeded in greatly impressing me by picking out an old blues by Little Hat Jones, and demonstrating Charley Patton's masterpiece, 'Down the Dirt Road', which I subsequently set about copying. In my 19-year-old neophyte's eyes, any guitarist who could approximate a vintage blues accompaniment was a virtuoso; only six or seven players in the entire country applied themselves to such pieces - Stephen Calt on the state of blues guitar in the early 1960s, from A Fahey Memoir (unpublished)

Thanks, dj. I bought and read Alex's book when it came out, so it's been a while. I located it and plan to read it again. Thanks Wax for the videos. I know you've posted them previously, but I couldn't locate them in the mix. And thanks again, Lew for the link to the book. I downloaded it and it's on my list. And above all, thank you John for all your hard work. I look forward to the books when they are published.
