Renowned guitarist Peter Walker (note: not this Peter Walker) will, on November 7, release his first new recordings in 37 years. Yeah, take that, Mission of Burma.
This man recorded for Vanguard Records in the Sixties. He studied with Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan, worked with jazz flutist Jeremy Steig and guitarist Bruce Langhorne, and excels at both Indian instrumentation and flamenco guitar. Heck, he had what qualifies as the coolest job to ever exist (other than the salaried masterminds behind the iTunes visualization feature), creating music specifically for Dr. Timothy Leary's LSD experiments.
Now, Walker has recorded four new tracks, set for release on A Raga for Peter Walker, a semi-tribute album due via Tompkins Square on November 7.
In addition to Walker's contributions, the disc features previously unreleased compositions by Thurston Moore, Steffen Basho-Junghans, James Blackshaw, Greg Davis, Shawn David McMillen, and Jack Rose-- all artists who were influenced by Walker and wanted to show their appreciation.
Tracklist:
01 Peter Walker - "Day at the Fair"
02 Peter Walker - "Hot Fusion"
03 James Blackshaw - "Spiralling Skeleton Memorial (live)"
04 Greg Davis - "Truly We Dwell in Happiness"
05 Jack Rose - "Cathedral et Chartres II (live)"
06 Thurston Moore - "Dirt Raga"
07 Shawn David McMillen - "Black Drink"
08 Steffen Basho-Junghans - "Blue Mountain Raga"
09 Peter Walker - "Jaleo Para Angela"
