VARIOUS ARTISTS - 156 STRINGS



10 years ago, Henry Kaiser compiled an album of acoustic guitar tracks from "guitarists who sound like themselves and have something special to say".
As the disc features quite a number of familiar names, I added it the United Mutations Archives.
Those interested in acoustic guitar music and / or music by Richard Thompson, Fred Frith, Mike Keneally, Henry Kaiser or Miroslav Tadic, to name a few of the 19 participants, should definitely check this album out.

Just in case that the 'familiar names' should need a bit of explanation:
Thompson, Frith and Kaiser performed and recorded with Beefheart drummer John French.
Mike Keneally was part of Frank Zappa's band.
Miroslav Tadic played guitar for the Grande Mothers Re:Invented (with N.M.Brock & Don Preston)
