Album Description
Vinyl LP pressing. Opening for Leo Kottke in 1975 in the Bay Area, Sandy Bull had expanded his sound even further than we could have imagined in the lost post-Vanguard silence. Rocking the then pretty new rhythm ace drum machine and utilizing pre-recorded tracks of bass and fuzz guitar while adding some pedal steel at one point, Sandy conjures whole new inflections over his classic sound. If you are even a casual fan of guitar music or artists like John Fahey, Jack Rose or Robbie Basho, you owe it to yourself to delve into Sandy Bull & the Rhythm Ace, Live 1976.

Most of my education on "cool music" came from liner notes on albums and "hip" magazines like Down Beat and FolkRoots magazine.
