The Great San Bernardino Birthday Party - John Fahey

[Obrotherbobby]

I have also wondered about this song many times....the whole album by Fahey is ethereal and you have captured it very well, Bernard. Again, another one, well done or done well! I have NOT seen you latest version? I will look for it....

@andrizz My fav too; that whole album is THE greatest ever ;) I wonder if anyone ever tried to cover other songs from that album like "Will the Circle be Unbroken" (organ and guitar) or "900 Miles" (Flute and Guitar)!!
