This is one of the best songs ever. I listen to it all the time. It never fails to improve my life.

It's as great as the first time I heard it.
I was watching t.v. one day and it was on a commercial. I was so fucking stoked.

I like Fahey's version of this song a lot. It's one of only a handful of songs I've ever learned how to play properly on the guitar.

Always loved this song, not as much as Beverly though.

There used to be a really good live version on youtube from the same performance as this wine and roses but its gone

It's indeed a gorgeous song. Talking of great songs, I have become slightly obsessed with this: http://www.mediafire.com/?xtzzozj2ntz

Nice one, that was the first fahey song that really changed me and it's still my favorite to play on guitar.

Today I started looping in christ there is no.... , slowing it down and then playing diseased stylophone over it. Very fun indeed.
