Album Notes & Community Reviews

Ben Chasny originally recorded this purely instrumental, acoustic tribute to the Mexican poet while still utilizing home-recorded cassette mediums. The deeply intimate record eschews the harsher drone elements of his other projects, focusing entirely on intricate, meditative guitar fingerpicking inspired by John Fahey and global folk traditions.
