John Fahey Plays The 'Dance Of The Inhabitants Of The Palace Of King Philip XIV Of Spain' - re-recorded in 1967.

Tuning is CCCGCE

Originally from the album JOHN FAHEY VOL II: DEATH CHANTS, BREAKDOWNS, AND MILITARY WALTZES, Recorded in Berkeley in 1963, and in Washington D.C. This album includes 12 pieces of the best work that John did in the early 1960's.

It brought him rave reviews from Boston to Los Angeles where Barry Hansen said "Fahey is working at a level of seriousness which none of the other experimenters in folk music even approach, and this album (his second) is strong testimony to his achievement and future possibilities." (Daily Bruin)

Titles include: Sunflower River Blues, Stomping Tonight on the Pennsylvania, Alabama Border, Some Summer Day, The Downfall of The Adelphi Rolling Grist Mill, and The Dance of the Inhabitants of the Palace of King Philip XIV of Spain.
