This is the first-ever CD reissue of Larry Conklin & Jochen Blum's great Seattle private press album, Jackdaw, originally released in 1980, now remastered in a 24-bit remaster. About half the album is instrumental with Larry Conklin on guitar and Jochen Blum on violin and 12-string guitar. Jackdaw brings to mind Fahey, Basho, Hecht, and other great solo guitarists, with mellow, haunting vocals that are worthy of the loner-folk tag. This album also spawned the regional Pacific Northwest hit "River Of Stories." If you're on a mission to find lost, masterful acoustic guitar records, this is definitely one you must hear. Comes in a handsome paper sleeve that precisely reproduces the original LP sleeve in miniature form. Also includes biographical liner notes.
