Hello Will & friends, Just back from a short tour of New England with Jack Rose. So how was Steffen?! Just got a couple new albums from him the mail ‹ ...
Hi, He was excellent! I recall him playing some of what I've heard of his recent 'In the Morning Twilight' live CD - mostly new works, I think. One of his new...
I would definitely recommend 'Inside' if you haven't heard that one, it is my favourite of his by a long chalk and easily in my top 5 favourite guitar...
Thanks for the suggestions Robbie. I think I heard a sample of a track from 'Inside' once and liked it. I'll put 'em on my never-ending list.. Good job with...
Does anyone here know anything about the 'tiny altar' alluded to in Fahey's notes for the Bashovia comp? Does it even exist? I received this email today from a...
This pretty much clears everything up: "Kiyohide drew the map for Bill Bellmont and Fantasy Records, and was very surprised to see it actually used in the...
Hi Robbie, It's great to see you've started a Basho forum, many thanks for setting it up. I play a lot of 12 string guitar, and I'd like to share my ...
Hi Andy, You're suggestion seems very plausible, the idea of slackening the strings like that is very common, but there are a few things that i'm not so sure...
I have noticed with some astonishment that Robbie Basho doesn't have a page for himself on Wikipedia. Would ayone here be interested in helping to initiate...
Hi all, In case you haven't made your own way there yet, I highly recommend you go to grown-so- ugly.blogspot.com/, they've just put the whole of the Takoma...

Hi Toni, There is a text version of the Frets article in the 'files' section that may want to look at. I copied the words out from some rather sleuthy-looking...

First of all, a big welcome to all the new members here. There are 20 of us now. As ever, if anyone has any queries, information, guitar tips, etc., please...
Hi Robbie. I found a rip of Rainbow Thunder through Soulseek a few years ago now. It's in Ogg Vorbis format and quite high quality. (The music is pretty high...
I spotted the "Rainbow Thunder" LP on eBay and intended to bid on it myself if I could get it for a reasonable price. Unfortunately $213-50 falls outside my...
Wow, That's amazing, I had no idea those existed on the internet! The rip of Rainbow Thunder is very high quality indeed, except i'm having the usual...
Yes, $200+ was too much for me as well :( On the upside, my stupidly high bid probably meant that the guy (a German collector of psych lps etc) that got it in...
I have a Tascam CD recorder so it's fairly easy for me to connect my record deck to it and record - the only difficult bit is pressing the button in between...
Good Day, I am an independent filmmaker, and I've just made a short film that I'd like to use one of Robbie's songs in (from the "Guitar Soli" album). Any...

Hello, I've heard of "Bouquet" (1983) and of "Twilight Peaks" (1984) but never heard them, even more, never heard of anyone that has heard or seen anyone else...
I wonder too. Perhaps he was having a rough time with it. Here's reference to it in the Frets article: "You said once that you tend to think of the guitar as...
Hi Robbie, Thanks so much for the links! There seems to be such a complicated chain of ownership, that I didn't know where to begin, but now I do! I would...
