Pelt
Pearls From The River
(VHF, 2003)
The late heir to Fahey's thorny crown, lamented by MOJO messageboarder.
The way-too-early passing of this generation's American Primitive folk guitar master Jack Rose continues to send shockwaves throughout the underground music community, particularly since the release of his posthumous masterpiece Luck In The Valley. The trail he blazed from post-Dead C noise guitar to Theater Of Eternal Music drone psych to post Fahey/Basho/Old Weird America master was singular and deep. No other recording he plays on stands so very much at the crossroads as this, which could practically be credited to Jack Rose & Pelt; the creative leap in Jack's technique emerges far more assertively than on any previous Pelt recording. Consisting of three long tracks of a rich dronescape with the band jamming on a plethora of exotic instrumentation (yes, I think I hear sitars) overlaid with the exquisite picking of Jack, you could easily find yourself drifting downstream as these tracks ebb and flow unlike any others in the collective output of the artists involved. Truly a special moment in a brief career full of them.
