Red West
Reviewed 2009-02-04
American fingerstyle guitar. Original compositions, melodic with an outsiderness reminiscent of Jim O’Rourke when he’s in his Fahey phase. All instrumentals. Accomplished playing, good recording. A pleasure to listen to.

1.urgent, understated
2.short, slow, resigned. Flows right into the next track
3.faster, outdoorsy yet troubled
4.mid-slow, minor key, descending chords, then it airs out
5.upbeat, happy-go-lucky.
6.measured start, then it picks up to a happy sing-song end
7.factual
8.A calm yet firm breakup
