Imaginational Anthem 9 Ryley Walker Presents / Va – Imaginational Anthem, Vol. 9: Ryley Walker Presents (CD)
Product Details
Ryley Walker arrived as one of the most compelling voices in the American Primitive and post-folk guitar world, steeped equally in John Fahey's solo tradition and the exploratory improvisational spirit of late-period ECM records. His curatorial instincts here reflect a musician who knows exactly where the thread runs between generations, connecting the foundational fingerpicking lineage to a younger scene pushing acoustic guitar into stranger, more restless territory.
Tompkins Square's Imaginational Anthem compilation series has introduced the world to many great guitarists. For volume 9, the label recruited Ryley Walker to compile the set. As with past Imaginational Anthem compilations, volume 9 represents the vanguard of acoustic guitar mastery in 2019.
