First Time On Vinyl Since 1981!
Limited Edition Vinyl LP!
Tompkins Square's acoustic guitar series, Imaginational Anthem, has brought to light many unheard, underappreciated acoustic guitarists over its 10 volumes. Imaginational Anthem Vol 8: The Private Press, in particular, spawned several reissues of previously obscure guitarists like Rick Deitrick, Tom Armstrong, and now Russell Potter. Originally released in 1979, it's reissued here for the first time. Limited Edition LP.
Though these albums landed at a time when American Primitive guitar music's 1960s & 1970s heyday was in the rear view mirror, they absolutely look ahead to the genre's eventual 21st Century resurrection, anticipating both in form & content many of the same concerns you find in the great contemporary work of the last two decades by Jack Rose, Glenn Jones, Daniel Bachman, et al., and as such provide about as fine a stepping stone between these two eras as you're likely to find.
