Ready Country Nimbus

An incredible ambient record. John Fahey meets Music For Airports. Immediate atmosphere. A bucolic fable in sound. The River Otters

Falling with a 1000 Stars and other wonders from the House of Albion

Such inspired, melancholy, prescient songwriting deserves to be appreciated by future generations. I will present this to my children as the soundtrack of my college years. The River Otters
