SARAH LOUISE - FIELD GUIDE
scissor tail 2015, edition of 100
i should have given this a proper RECOMMENDATION when i first picked it up, so many tapes, so little time -- "feels like a lost disc from Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music" -- that, and then some, a pure expression from the soul of the artist in the form of american primitive guitar, the title perhaps as much a reference to this cassette's profound ability to reveal peace and contentment - and lead the listener toward them - as it is a more literal guide in the sound and imagery of appalachian folk, regardless SARAH LOUISE is a supremely gifted guitarist and this tape deserves to be lauded on that merit alone -- sold out at the source, i have one last copy left in the PSI LAB SHOP
