The Lost Takoma Sessions - CD
These songs were recorded for John Fahey's Takoma label in 1977,
just before they folded. They've been sitting idle all these years but thanks to the persistence of my cousin, Tiffany Anders, they will be out on Drag City Records July 25. If you're a fan of Fahey, Kottke, Basho etc. you'll definitely like this collection of
12-string instrumentals.
Imaginational Anthem Vol. 3 - CD
Guitar heads, mark your calendars for April 8: that’s when Tompkins Square drops Imaginational Anthem Vol. 3, the third in a series of compilations devoted to acoustic guitar mavericks past and present. The label will also release all three volumes together as a box set on the same date.

All three volumes of were compiled by Tompkins Square label founder Josh Rosenthal.
