Very cool...Fahey was probably the first modern guy to use the weissenborn style guitars...a guitar giant who is truly missed.

Not only missed by we who had seen him or bought his music, but completely missed by thousands of slide players! A great talent that few appreciated while he was among us. Like so many artists throughout time, they are gone before their genius is known. Fahey had little to go on when he started this back in the 50's. It may have often been a lonely road.
