European Primitive Guitar (1974-1987) - NTS Compilation

https://www.nts.live/incoming/european-primitive-guitar

NTS presents European Primitive Guitar, a compilation of instrumental guitar compositions, mapping out the European analogues of the American Primitive Guitar movement, spearheaded by John Fahey in the 1950s.

Released physically and digitally on January 26 2024, European Primitive Guitar spans works directly influenced by and responding to Fahey’s approach to composition, alongside works by artists that arrived at similar conclusions independently. The music is, at once, both starkly traditional and contemporary.

Been listening to this for the last few days and have been really enjoying this compilation.

Sounds cool. Randomly had John Fahey's Hitomi on heavy rotation after stumbling on it in my collection and not knowing anything about it/him.
