Just saw this album from Lubbockite Terry Allen, sounds interesting, wonder if anyone knows who it is about and if they've ever heard it(Charlie McDonald, Wally Moyers?)
Check out the description below.
Pedal Steal is the latest installment in Sugar Hill's plan to restore all of maverick renaissance man Terry Allen's recordings to print again. It's loosely based on an actual steel guitar player who wandered Texas and New Mexico in the late 60s-early 70s, one of the first to use the instrument for rock and roll. Commissioned as a soundtrack for the Margaret Jenkins Dance Company in San Francisco, Pedal Steal premiered at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Next Wave Festival October 22, 1985. The soundtrack and staging of Pedal Steal received the New York Dance Critics' acclaimed 'Bessie' award. 2006.

I'm really enjoying this. Steel is spare, but everything is when you're painting the flatland.
It actually reminds me of something I'd do: ancient Chinese song (Tu Ning), footsteps, heartbeats, lots of space. |
