It is not often I get to write about my favorites from long ago, but thankfully there is a renaissance of sorts for Robbie Basho these days with an overdue reissuing campaign for his formal releases along with a host of attic discoveries and live performances. Not bad for someone who died over 30 years ago and probably sold less records than the Velvet Underground. The recording here is raw and simple but succeeds in showcasubg the guitar sound and the finesse of Basho’s playing, much better than I was expecting. At first, there were several instrumentals, which although nice, it was even nicer to eventually hear some cuts with his distinctive vocal work. Also, the instrumental work was quite varied with classical takes from Germany and Vaughn Williams, along with his western Americana songs, and even some of his Indian interpretations. It is classic Basho and another fine release for the fans, both old and new. But for us old timers, this features the only live versions of ‘Blue Crystal Fire’ and ‘El Cid’ known to exist, which is reason enough to buy it. But I have one more reason… this has the only recording of ‘Girl from Marizod’, which is one of the more enchanting songs in his entire repertoire.
