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applied themselves to such pieces - Stephen Calt on the state of blues guitar in the early 1960s, from A Fahey Memoir (unpublished)

please spread the word. http://guitarbench.com/index.php/2009/06/10/tom-doughty-artist-interview/ I'd already picked this one up on the Larriv?e Forum and can recommend it. Anything that promote's Tom's music is a good thing in my book.
