Old Fashioned Love (4.5*)

JohnFaheyHisOrchestr

Credited, like Of Rivers and Religion and After the Ball, to John Fahey and His Orchestra but on Takima rather than Warner Brothers, another attempt to broaden Fahey's market. But it ddnt sell either.

Hughesy's assessment: The track selection varies a little from the notional Fahey repertoire (In a Persian Market and  Jaya Shiva Shankara), but the playing is excellent throughout. But then, you expect that with Fahey. Almost Immaculate and quite Outstanding.
