John Fahey - Lion

Check out the video called 'John Fahey plays "Red Pony" 1969' if you want to see the Bacon and Day guitar Fahey used, this is definitely a D-35.

its a martin d-35 not a bacon and day. The only bacon and day guitar he played was tragically destroyed early on in his career.

one of the best tracks from this show

ummm yeah i know hes dead. nothing i said implied otherwise. Yes he IS the fucking man, that doesn't mean hes alive or dead.Hes in heaven right now jamming with someone cool. hes still the man. fuck yeah the immortal john fahey lives on! i hope next time you reply to something it actually has a purpose other than trying to make someone look bad.

heh nuggz - i thought that was what the great youtube bunfight was all about!

eulogy for his cat named lion... medley of 'a rag' by buddy boy hawkins (with elements of charley patton), 'amazing grace' and 'when the saints go marching in'.

I don't hear "when the saints" in it....and I also used to think it was "amazing grace", but it's actually "swing low, sweet chariot".

Right on nuggz123. You fuckin said it.

It's a martin d-35. don't know what year, but he says on an instructional cd that i have that he plays mostly on a d-35, and this sure looks like one to me.

If I'm not mistaken, it's not a Martin. I'm pretty sure that Fahey used a Bacon & Day guitar. They're more known for their banjos of course. But he used their guitars.
