Robbie Basho - Wine Song




Here's a new name to me (and you I'm guessing) but an old track that has a touch of the Buckleys (Jeff and Tim), John Martyn, John Fahey and Michael Chapman about it. Poor Basho got very little recognition when he was alive as well as suffering from mental and physical ill health and then, aged just 45, died after a visit to a chiropractor ruptured blood vessels in his neck leading to a stroke. Blimey. I've yet to investigate much of his work but this song's a folking beauty. Enjoy.
